Sagamore Spirit Bottled in Bond straight rye whiskey marks our commitment to the highest levels of excellence and authenticity-furthering our mission to make Maryland distilled, aged, and bottled products. Enacted in 1897, the bottled in bond distinction is a marker of distilling quality and transparency. Featuring our first batch of whiskey distilled in Maryland, this 100-proof rye whiskey is a blend of two rye mash bills-a high rye and a low rye-showcasing flavors of rye spice from our grain, fruit and floral notes from our sour mash fermentation, and notes of toasty caramel from our barrel aging.

The Bottled-in-Bond Act of 1897 established that spirits with this designation must be a product of one distillation season; at one distillery; aged in a federally bonded warehouse for at least four years; bottled at 100-proof; and produced in the United States.

This product was first introduced in November 2021 and is available now at our distillery and shipping to limited markets across the U.S. in November of 2022.

Maker Notes

In our pursuit of terroir-driven, unapologetic whiskey, we select and marry individual barrels at cask strength to fully express what originally drew us to the robust flavors of the semi-wild rye cultivated in the San Luis Valley.

AROMAS: Varies from batch to batch

FLAVORS: Varies from batch to batch

MASH BILL: 100% heirloom rye

AGED: Over 3+ years in new, 53-gallon oak barrels and bottled at cask strength

ALC/VOL: Varies from batch to batch

Distilled from a traditional rye mash bill consisting of 51% rye and 49% corn. A high percentage of corn adds a nice rich sweetness that balances out the flavor notes of Rye’s big black pepper and cinnamon spice. Creating a flavor profile that starts off creamy, rich with fruit and candy flavor notes that has a big, bold, complex spicy finish that lingers for an eternity.

With our oldest expression to date, we’re tapping into the time-honored techniques of the farmer distillers who invented the category in America’s early days.
WhistlePig Double Malt Rye is our oldest Rye, patiently mellowed for 18 years. Before industrial distillation, America’s original farmers would malt a small portion of their grain to start fermentation, the essential step that turns water and rye into glorious whiskey. As a nod to the farmers, Double Malt Rye is crafted from a mash bill of Rye, Malted Rye and Malted Barley. History aside, these grains unite in a show-stopping Rye Whiskey that stretches far and wide across the flavor spectrum. Its base of 79% Rye delivers bold, peppery spice, while 15% Malted Rye adds soft, floral and earthy character. A final 6% of malted barley brings rich, sweet, toasted notes.

To take the expansive palate of WhistlePig Double Malt even further the 4th Edition is finished in Spanish PX Sherry Casks.  At once bold, complex, delicate and elegant, WhistlePig 18 is the whiskey that your most memorable toasts require, and a gem on any bar.

TASTING NOTES

NOSE: Sweet and aromatic, with toasted oak, berries, and nutmeg.

PALATE: Elegant and spicy, mildly fruity, and pleasantly floral. Vanilla and oak notes appear with time.

FINISH: Wonderfully long, clean, and spicy finish.

Disclaimer: The bottle's lid may differ, either as cork or glass. The available variant will be sent accordingly.

A premium rye whiskey that is handcrafted in Newport, Kentucky. The distillery is known for its commitment to traditional techniques and high-quality ingredients, and this rye whiskey is no exception.

Like the bourbon whiskey, this rye whiskey is also a single barrel expression, meaning that each bottle comes from a single barrel that has been carefully selected and aged for a minimum of four years. The barrels used are made from new charred oak, which imparts rich flavors and aromas to the whiskey.

New Riff Single Barrel Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey has a deep amber color and a complex flavor profile. On the nose, there are notes of cinnamon, clove, and nutmeg, as well as hints of vanilla and caramel. The palate is spicy and full-bodied, with flavors of black pepper, tobacco, and dark fruit. The finish is long and warming, with a touch of sweetness that lingers on the tongue.

This rye whiskey is bottled at cask strength, which means that it is not diluted before bottling and has a higher alcohol content than many other rye whiskeys. This gives it a powerful, intense flavor that is best enjoyed neat or with a few drops of water to open up the flavors.

The Lone Cypress Rye Whiskey is a beautifully crafted and distinctive blend that offers a unique sensory experience, drawing inspiration from one of the world’s most iconic trees—the Lone Cypress, perched along the rugged coastline of the Monterey Peninsula. This rye whiskey captures the essence of its namesake with a savory, delicate profile highlighted by earthy notes of dried herbs, pine, and a touch of salt-air salinity. It's a spirit that evokes the natural beauty and windswept allure of the California coast.

Tasting Notes

• Color: Russet, with deep amber hues.
• Nose: The nose is soft and inviting, with aromas of cedar and a sweet undertone of buckwheat honey. There’s a subtle yet intriguing layer of burnt orange peel, apricot, and dried rosemary. Pleasant spices like toasted allspice and peppercorns linger in the background, adding complexity to the bouquet.
• Palate: The whiskey coats the mouth with a satisfying saltwater taffy flavor, bringing notes of ripe apricot and peach. As the flavor unfolds, a fresh and briny note emerges, adding a unique coastal character that is both intriguing and refreshing.
• Finish: On the exhale, faint flavors of chamomile tea and baked goods, such as an apple cider donut, appear. The orchard fruit flavors persist and deepen, becoming jammy, leaving a lasting impression.
• With Water: Adding three drops of water enhances the savory edge of the whiskey, bringing crushed peppercorn, fennel, and licorice into focus. The fruit notes soften and take on the qualities of poached pears and cinnamon, offering a new and equally delightful experience.
