Sagamore Spirit Signature Rye Whiskey

Sagamore Spirit Signature Rye Whiskey is a Maryland-Style straight rye whiskey flowing from a spring house built in 1909 at Maryland’s Sagamore Farm — naturally filtered spring water fed from a limestone aquifer, the same water that fuels the champion thoroughbreds of the Sagamore Farm, enhancing the rich spice of the rye to create a spirit that embodies the spirit of Maryland’s distilling traditions.

Sagamore Spirit was established in 2013 by Kevin Plank (founder of Under Armour) on the historic Sagamore Farm in Maryland, reviving the state’s traditional rye whiskey heritage. Maryland-style rye is historically a softer, more approachable rye style than the Pennsylvania rye tradition — presenting the characteristic spice of the rye grain balanced by accessible sweetness. Aged 4 to 5 years and bottled at 83 proof.
