Crafted with care and innovation, Sagamore Rye Barrel Reserve Sauternes Cask Finish is a bold expression of Maryland rye whiskey tradition, reimagined with a luxurious finish. This release is part of the Sagamore Spirit Barrel Reserve program—offering one-of-a-kind selections that highlight meticulous grain choices, aging techniques, and expert blending.
This unique rye is a blend of 4-year-old straight rye whiskies, aged for an additional 2 years in Sauternes wine barrels. The result is a harmonious fusion of honeyed fruit notes from the French Sauternes casks, perfectly balanced with Sagamore’s signature spice-forward rye character.
Hand-selected by Clyde's Restaurant Group, this special release is bottled at a robust 53.8% ABV (107.6 proof) and hand-bottled for quality assurance.
