Sagamore Spirit Cognac Finish

Sagamore Spirit is reminiscent of the early days of Maryland distilling, paying homage to this era with a uniquely crafted spirit. Maryland rye whiskeys are historically smoother. In their early stages, the majority of production went into blends for other companies; they currently own their private distillery outfitted with a brand new visitor center in Maryland. Sagamore produces a range of four all American Rye Whiskeys. Historically, Maryland Rye Whiskey is a much smoother whiskey than its Pennsylvanian and Kentucky counterparts, harboring creamy tastes and textures from the calcium-rich waters of Maryland limestone. This Sagamore rye is meticulously crafted. Each batch is scrutinizingly analyzed for consistency in aroma, flavor, and texture. The spirit is crafted from two distinct mash bills of rye, corn and malted barley, that yields a signature bold flavor profile. The first is high in rye, with a bit of corn and malted barley, a ratio that yields flavors like baking spices and fruit. In the second mash bill, rye plays second fiddle, allowing the corn and malted barely to become more prominent. This ratio yields a smoother and sweeter spirit. The two recipes are distilled, and aged separately, creating a bold, approachable rye. This unique whiskey is the traditional Sagamore Rye finished in French cognac barrels, yielding notes of velvety spice, apple vanilla, and brown sugar. Winner of the 2019 Denver International Spirits Competition Double Gold this whiskey captures the spirit of innovation and tradition.Pick up your bottle today!
