We had an awesome experience and Black Fox distillery. Such a beautiful property to come and relax at and sample some gin. The staff was very informative and the atmosphere was so welcoming. The whisky was also great but the gin stole the show for us. Definitely couldn’t leave without a bottle of Haskap gin and Sage gin! They will be very much enjoyed this summer! 😍

Oaked Gin
A nod to the centuries-old practice of transporting and storing gin in oak barrels, we rest our gin in virgin American white oak, giving it a smoky, woody quality. Be sure to share this flavourful experience with your fellow gin and whisky enthusiasts.

Where Whisky Meets Gin
In the late 18th and early 19th centuries, gin was often transported and stored in oak barrels. Black Fox Oaked Gin is a nod to this centuries-old practice.
If you are looking for an exceptional barrel-aged gin in Canada, this one-of-a-kind spirit rests in white oak barrels beneath vast Saskatchewan prairie skies, gaining true Canadian character. As the cask expands and contracts in our extreme climate, it imparts depth, warmth, and complexity. The result is a spirit that perfectly harmonizes the bright botanicals of gin with the richness and crossover appeal of a whisky.
Tasting Notes & Profile
This bold spirit opens with rich, earthy oak aromas before revealing smooth layers of caramel, vanilla, and baking spices. A long, lingering finish ties it together, leaving a subtle sweetness that invites another sip. It is best savoured neat, or used to elevate your favourite whisky cocktail.
How to Enjoy: The Oaked Gin Sour
While incredible on its own, this spirit shines in classic cocktails. For a signature taste, try the Oaked Gin Sour:
