Sagamore Spirit Rum Cask Finish
Rye
Sagamore Spirit // Maryland, USA
This wide release follows the success of the distillery-only expression from 2019. For this expression, 5 and 6 year-old straight rye whiskies are placed some in ex-rum casks from South America, and the rest in barrels from Jamaica, aging both for an additional 10 months.
Once maturation was complete, the whiskey from both barrels were then blended back together. It is bottled at 98 proof and available as of March, 2022.
