Sagamore Rye Tasting

Sagamore Rye Whiskey Small Batch - Our Sagamore 93 Small Batch Rye proudly represents a promise fulfilled after opening Sagamore Distillery in 2017. It is our first 100% Maryland made whiskey, now available worldwide.

It starts with our commitment to source high-quality grains through our grain to-glass process. These grains are used to create our high-rye and low-rye whiskeys that are both triple distilled and matured for 4-6 years before being blended in small 20-barrel batches. The blending of two straight whiskeys gives complexity, while our triple distillation process enhances its distinct smoothness.

Sagamore 93 Small Batch Rye is a modern Maryland-style rye that draws inspiration from Maryland’s distilling past through its balanced taste profile, while offering rich flavors that appeal to the whiskey lovers of today.

Cask Strength Rye Whiskey - Our Cask Strength Rye Whiskey is a blend of straight high-rye and low-rye mash bills aged 4 to 7 years. The 7-year-old contributes deeper chocolate, hazelnut, and molasses characteristics and the 4-year-old adds bright citrus notes and balanced spice. After our distillers select and blend these straight rye whiskies, they add just a touch of limestone-filtered water from our spring house built in 1909. Cask Strength is complex and perfectly layered, showcasing the transformational art of blending.

Double Oak Rye Whiskey - After aging our straight rye whiskey for 4 to 5 years in high-char new American oak barrels, our distillers transfer the aged whiskey into toasted wave stave barrels for an additional 18 months. The increased surface area of the low-char, medium-plus-toast staves imparts Double Oak’s delightful caramel, toffee, hazelnut, and toasted coconut. Our classic Maryland-style rye whiskey is reimagined through this innovative aging process and then proofed with limestone-filtered water from our spring house built in 1909. The final spirit is a shining example of old meeting new.
