The Sagamore Rum Cask Finish Rye Whiskey, part of the Reserve Series, is crafted using a blend of high-rye and low-rye whiskey. The base whiskies are aged for over five years, then aged an additional ten months in rum barrels from South America and Jamaica before being blended together. Produced by MGP and blended and bottled by Sagamore Spirits in Indiana, the whiskey has a mash bill of at least 51% rye, with corn and malted barley. It is bottled at 49% ABV, non-chill filtered.
There is something deeply tasty and fun about this Sagamore Rum Cask Finish Rye Whiskey. The depth, on the palate and nose, is easy to get lost in and the heavy rum notes make it easy to explore over and over.
