95.5% rye (Sagamore Spirits) blended with 52% rye/43% corn (Bardstown Bourbon Company)
Nose
Fresh mint, dill-adjacent fresh-cut oak character, tropical candy brightness, dynamic and fruity presentation, screams rye character.
Palate
Assertive and minty, subtle medicinal Sherry note in background as intended, clove and nutmeg spice, horehound candy character, rye spice carries through without being overwhelmed by wood.
Finish
Clove and nutmeg-driven, medicinal horehound candy quality reminiscent of old country candy, finishing warmth appropriate for proof.
Overall Score
4.7 / 5
A commanding rye that showcases how the spirit can stand up to bold finishing without capitulation, with Sherry and French oak playing supporting roles to the assertive rye character.
