含羞草研究社淩ecent years have been difficult for wineries and tourism across the province, and we are taking action to support these valuable businesses,含羞草研究社 said Mike Farnworth, Minister of Public Safety and Solicitor General. 含羞草研究社淭he changes we are making will create better experiences for visitors of wineries and liquor manufacturers across the province, helping them - and all of B.C. - to be a more competitive and desirable destination for visitors. 含羞草研究社

In response to industry feedback, the province has implemented a suite of policy changes to enhance visitor experiences at wineries and other liquor-manufacturing sites this summer.

Improvements to the customer experience include:

* allowing people to sit and enjoy samples while on a guided tour;

* allowing packaged liquor sales in more places on site, including tours;

* allowing more flexibility around sampling so liquor manufacturers can customize sampling experiences for visitors; and

* allowing manufacturers to sell and promote their products in picnic areas and host visitors more effectively.
