Sagamore Spirit Sherry Finish 6 year 750

Sagamore Spirit Sherry Cask Finish is a Maryland-style rye whiskey from Sagamore Spirit in Baltimore, finished in sherry casks after resting a minimum of six years. Maryland rye is historically known for a higher-rye mash with a softer, fruitier profile than Kentucky or Indiana rye, and the sherry finish layers dried fruit and nutty sweetness over that base. Expect a nose of raisin and toasted oak, a palate of baking spice, dark fruit, and rye grain, and a finish that lingers with sherry sweetness. It suits whiskey drinkers who already like rye but want something rounder and more dessert-leaning than a standard bottling.

The sherry influence makes this one worth trying neat first before reaching for a mixing glass - a few drops of water opens the dried-fruit notes further.
