Sagamore Spirit Rye
Continuing July 4th weekend rye tastings with Baltimore’s own, Sagamore Spirit Rye Whiskey. Sagamore is a relatively newer distillery that focuses its efforts on Rye, a hearty grain that the early Maryland settlers were able to grow in the subpar soil conditions as forests were cleared for farming during colonial times.
Aberlour 16 Year Old
Aberlour is another distillery in the Speyside region. The Aberlour 16 Double Cask Matured is a single malt expression made from distillate that was aged for at least 16 years in ex-Bourbon casks and at least 16 years in Sherry butts. The barrels selected for this bottling are then married together. The brand has refreshed the packaging and my bottle might be the old label (I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm mistaken)
