About Sagamore Spirit:

Sagamore Spirit, based in Baltimore, Maryland, is a renowned distiller founded in 2013 to revive Maryland-style rye whiskey, crafting award-winning spirits using limestone-filtered water from a historic 1909 spring house. Their 5-acre waterfront distillery in Port Covington produces high-rye, blended, and "double oak" rye whiskeys, often featuring local Maryland grains.

 

Key Aspects of Sagamore Spirit

• Awards & Recognition: Their rye whiskeys have won over 200 international awards, including "World's Best Rye Whiskey" in 2019.
• Production & Style: Sagamore specializes in a unique Maryland-style rye—a blend of high-rye and low-rye mash bills—that is generally considered a mix of sweet and spicy. While they initially sourced whiskey, they have transitioned to using their own distillate, with plans to be 100% house-distilled.
