A Toast to the East Coast: Flavours, Vintages and Fiery Sauces from Charlottetown.
On Prince Edward Island, a single afternoon can be a compact education in place through taste: crispy fish & chips at an award-winning brewery, curated flights of local beer and vodka sodas, a hands-on sampling of Island-made hot sauces, and a guided tasting beneath the rows of Rossignol Estate Winery. This guided experience stitches those elements together into a five-hour circuit that takes you out of Charlottetown and back with a clearer sense of PEI’s food and drink identity.
