Distillery Information

Sagamore Spirit Rye Whiskey is a blend of two straight rye mash bills, aged 4 to 6 years in high-char American oak barrels. The first is a high-rye, which adds notes of cinnamon and clove, and the second, a low-rye, contributes notes of caramel, honey, and citrus peel.
In the United States, rye whiskey is, by law, made from a mash of at least 51 percent rye. (The other ingredients in the mash are usually corn and malted barley.) It is distilled to no more than 160 U.S. proof (80% abv) and aged in charred, new oak barrels.
The whiskey is aged for a minimum of two years and typically four or more years before it can be bottled. Straight rye whiskey will be aged for at least two years and won't contain any other spirits, but there are other options out there as well, like “bottled-in-bond.”
Bourbon and rye are both types of whiskey, but they differ in ingredients, and for a whiskey to be considered bourbon, it must meet very strict requirements.Similar to an American whiskey, Single Barrel Rye is a flavourful oak aged spirit made using traditional methods and high-quality British grain. A blend of malted rye and barley create a unique blend of malted sweetness, cereal depth and rye spice.
