Orphan Barrel Night Sage 25 Year Old Blended Canadian Whisky
45% ABV (90 proof) | 750mL | 25 years | Blended Canadian Whisky | Distilled in Ontario and Manitoba | Limited single batch — Orphan Barrel Night Sage 25 Year Old is the 25th release in Diageo's Orphan Barrel Collection, a blended Canadian whisky matured 25 years in a combination of first-dump oak and multi-use barrels — all previously held Canadian whisky. Distilled in Ontario and Manitoba from undisclosed distilleries, it was released as a limited single batch in June 2026. Available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor in San Diego, CA.
The Orphan Barrel project exists to rescue rare barrels aging deep in Diageo's whisky inventory, and Night Sage is its most mature Canadian release to date. The label art takes its cues from the snowy owl — patience and wisdom — fitting for a quarter-century-old whisky. At 25 years, this is collector-grade Canadian whisky that rarely leaves the country in this form.
