Sagamore Spirit 6 Year Old Reserve Series Sherry Finish Straight Rye American Whiskey 750mL

First released as a Distillery Exclusive bottle in 2019, our distillers were committed to bring back this complex and layered whiskey for the world to enjoy. The structured oak profile of our original whiskey balances the bouquet of dried fruit and honey left from the PX Sherry wine. Our 4-year old straight rye whiskey spent an additional 18 months in 132-gallon PX Sherry barrels, resulting in a taste profile featuring velvety notes of toasted almond, dried fig, and soft spice.

Tasting Notes:

Palate: Toasted almond, dried fig, raisins, dates, honey, toffee, candied orange peel, jam, soft spice and hints of cocoa.

"Spice floats above cinnamon cake, vanilla, and spiced chocolate on the nose, deftly balanced by earthy hints of oak and slate. The palate is lively with sweetness of cherries, sugared pineapple, and candied orange, all balanced by spice. Lots of depth on a long, rich finish with notes of dark chocolate, tobacco leaf, and more subtle spice. An excellent dram, with great depth, integration, and that appealingly long finish." - David Fleming, Whisky Advocate (92 Points)

" It’s quite an expressive whisky, well-spiced but also well-rounded. The warming finish sees much of the bigger fruit notes subside, giving way to more cocoa powder and mild rye spice. A fitting fireside dram, especially during the holidays." - Drew Beard, Drinkhacker (90 Points)
