Sagamore Spirit, the leading and award-winning Maryland rye distillery, is proud to announce the release of a new batch of their award winning Cask Strength Rye Whiskey. This 100% Maryland-made cask strength rye whiskey is 7-Years-Old and has an ABV of 61.5%. This whiskey contains notes of rich dark chocolate and black cherries with freshly cracked black pepper give way to smooth caramel and honey. A long and complex finish reveals leathery oak tannins and a gentle, lasting warmth.
Creating the new batch of Cask Strength Rye Whiskey starts with Sagamore’s commitment to sourcing high-quality grains through their grain-to-glass process and connecting with the local farming community. These grains are used to create Sagamore’s high-rye and low-rye whiskeys that are both triple distilled and matured for 7 years before being blended in small batches. The blending of two straight whiskeys gives complexity, while Sagamore’s triple distillation process enhances its distinct smoothness.
Sagamore Spirit Cask Strength Rye Whiskey captures the local terroir as it was aged for 7 years in Maryland where the hot and humid summers increase proof and complexity. This is a modern Maryland-style rye that draws inspiration from Maryland’s distilling past through its distinct taste profile, while offering rich flavors that appeal to the whiskey purist of today.
This new batch of Sagamore Spirit Cask Strength Rye Whiskey is rolling out nationwide beginning May at an SRP of $69.99 and can be purchased either at the Sagamore Spirit’s distillery in Baltimore or select retailers throughout the country. For more information, visit SagamoreSpirit.com.
