Sagamore Spirit 4 year old Bottled In Bond, 50%

Price: 60 Issue: Summer 2022 Reviewer: David Fleming Category: Rye Whiskey


Sweet vanilla and rye grain aromas that have mellowed with age, along with grape jam, tea, and licorice root. The palate has depth and is artfully spiced, offering dark chocolate, baked red fruits, and black pepper. Water brings out vanilla bean, black licorice, root beer, mince pie, and lots of balanced spice. The finish is lively and has excellent length, ending with bright red fruit, rye grain, chocolate, and a delicious peppery bang.
