“Hello and welcome to the world of Black Fox, We are so very pleased to place in your hands the voice of our land and the soul of its soil – SE Eleven Whisky from Black Fox Farm and Distillery. At Black Fox, our sole purpose is to create exceptional whisky in a rare, authentic, and sustainable manner.

As the farmers and distillers, we pay attention to EVERY little detail, from the time we plant the seeds to the final pour into your glass. It starts with our terroir. Saskatchewan, located in the heart of the Canadian prairies, possesses growing conditions unique in the world known to positively affect grain quality. With this in mind, we carefully select the grain varieties we grow based on flavour.

The whisky you are about to enjoy is crafted from Triticale (triticosecale), a cereal grain that is a wheat/rye hybrid, initially developed in the late 1800’s.

Throughout our distillation we attentively monitor the process, masterfully choosing only the finest spirit to place into the virgin white oak cask. Then we deliberately place our casks outdoors to be nurtured and aged by Mother Nature, 365 days per year, resting until perfection.

This step is unique in the world, exposing our whisky to a temperature range of +35°C to -40°C. As a result, each whisky is a true artful expression of the elements from which it was crafted. We care deeply about this planet, for us sustainability is an action.

We incorporate environmentally friendly soil conservation practices, reduce our use of pesticides, and capture carbon in natural processes. We compost our spent grains for fertiliser, recycle 95% of our water, and incorporate regenerative agriculture practices.

Our aim is to better the land for future generations. These efforts and attention to detail have paid off. SE Eleven Single Grain Whisky has been awarded a Masters Medal from the Whisky Masters and a gold medal in Canada”
