Sagamore Spirit Cask Strength Rye (112.2 proof)
112.2 proof
NAS
Rye
Sagamore Spirit
Baltimore, MD
Nose
Bitter stone fruit character; unusual and not immediately pleasant; fruity but off-putting initially.
Palate
Sweet, juicy, and candy-like with surprising contrast to nose; fig Newton, nectarine, and cinnamon candy notes; Twizzler-like quality; lingering finish.
Finish
Long and continuously deepening with oak and wood; makes the mouth water; cinnamon toothpick warmth that persists; rich and oaky with fruit notes still present on the front of the palate.
Really good
A rye with a divisive nose that belies an unexpectedly sweet, fruity, and complex palate backed by an exceptionally long and warming finish.
