About this bottle
Sazerac Straight Rye Whiskey traces its name back to New Orleans in the mid-1800s and is produced today at Buffalo Trace Distillery in Kentucky from a rye mash bill, distilled and aged a minimum of two years in new charred oak barrels. The nose opens with baking spice and a touch of dill; the palate is spicy and robust, carrying vanilla, caramel, and rye grain in equal measure, with a warm, peppery finish that lingers. Bottled at 90 proof, it has the backbone to stand up in a cocktail without losing its identity neat. This is the bottle for drinkers who want a true straight rye — direct, unblended, and built as much for sipping as for mixing.
How to drink Sazerac Straight Rye
It earns its name in a Sazerac, but don't overlook a classic Old Fashioned — the rye spice cuts cleanly through sugar and bitters. On the rocks it opens up further, showing more vanilla as it dilutes; neat, it stays sharp and grain-forward.
