Sagamore Spirit’s High Rye Bourbon (6 Year) is far more than a typical craft release; it is a masterclass in the intersection of Maryland’s historic rye-distilling traditions and the foundational pillars of Kentucky bourbon heritage. Crafted at their Baltimore distillery with a unique mash bill of 60% corn, 25% rye, and 15% malted rye, this release is a masterclass in balance, skillfully utilizing triple distillation to achieve an exceptionally smooth, refined texture that belies its robust 118 proof (59% ABV). It offers an intense, authentic profile defined by deep layers of caramel, turbinado sugar, and warm baking spices—specifically ground cinnamon and ginger—complemented by bright orchard fruit and a characteristic, lingering finish of bitter espresso and piquant rye spice. Serving as both a pinnacle of Sagamore’s commitment to a "grain-to-glass" approach and a definitive calling card for their successful expansion beyond their flagship rye offerings, this limited-run bottling stands as a sophisticated and spirited choice for the enthusiast seeking a high-rye bourbon that bridges the gap between deep, sweet depth and high-voltage, spicy complexity.
