Sagamore Spirit Rye In Tequila Barrels 750 ml

Sagamore Spirit Rye Finished in Tequila Barrels takes the distillery's signature Maryland-style rye — a blend of high-rye and low-rye mash bills — and finishes it in barrels that previously held tequila, an unconventional pairing that adds agave-adjacent sweetness and a subtle vegetal note to the whiskey's usual spice and dark fruit. It's a limited, experimental release built to showcase how a very different prior-use barrel changes a rye's finished character. A distinctive pick for whiskey drinkers who enjoy tracking unusual barrel-finish experiments.

How to drink Sagamore Rye in Tequila Barrels

Neat or on one rock lets the tequila-barrel influence show clearly against the base rye's spice. It's an interesting enough combination that a heavy mixer would bury exactly what makes it different.
