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.”
Most commonly associated with North America, ryes made in the United States must contain a minimum of 51% rye grain in the mashbill. A “mashbill” is the recipe of grains that get mixed together and fermented before being distilled into spirit. Read more about how American whiskeys are made here.
