RyeUnlike bourbon, rye whiskey can be made anywhere in the world. But if made in the US, the mash bill recipe must be at least 51% rye and it must be aged in new, charred oak barrels with no age requirement. Elsewhere, the rye whiskey will be made keeping the country of origin's rules regarding the recipe and minimum aging.

Tasting Notes
"Sagamore Spirit is big and spicy, as one would expect from a cask strength rye. Although it's hot up front, it quickly gives way to deeper, richer notes of cherry, pipe tobacco, and fig. A sweet hint of clove lingers on the finish. With the strength to stand up in a Manhattan, it also offers up up gentler notes of cedar with the addition of a little water."
