Arcadian Distillery was founded in 1957 by Larry McGuiness. It was located in Bridgetown, Nova Scotia, Canada. During its heyday, it produced a handful of traditional Canadian-style Whiskies, including their Arcadian Signature and the Old Canada blend.

McGuiness Distillers Limited is still an operating company, and they still produce the Old Canada blend, but French beverage giant Pernod Ricard owns the old Arcadian Distillery grounds — which have been mothballed since 1986.
