About this deal
Cheapest I have ever seen this for! A mix of standard MGP 95/5 Rye and a lower Rye content mashbill contracted to MGP by Sagamore themselves.
Details
Rye whiskey has a long ol' history in the USA, with a few places in particular singled out in rye's journey, including Kentucky, Pennsylvania, and Maryland. The Maryland-style of rye has struggled on the verge of extinction in recent decades, but Sagamore Spirit is one of a few producers choosing to make this sweeter style of rye. The Signature Rye is made with a sourced combination of two rye whiskeys from Indiana, brought down to bottling strength with limestone-filtered water from Sagamore Farm. Not quite a dry and spicy as the rye whiskeys that you may be familiar with, but it offers up a lip-smacking sweetness that makes for easy sipping, and works great in cocktails.

The Sazerac and the Manhattan are the famous uses of Rye whiskey in cocktails.
Some information about the three different classes of Rye Whiskies:
vinepair.com/art…ed/
1.) Pennsylvania Style / Monongahela Style
Typically around 95% Rye and 5% Malted Barley. MGP is the biggest producer of this style and used in Templeton Rye and Bulleit Rye. No Corn is used so the least sweetest form of Rye whiskey.
2.)Maryland Style
Upto 70% Rye,with the rest being Corn and Malted Barley.
3.)Kentucky Style
Between 51% to 55% Rye and the rest being Corn and Malted Barley. The sweetest form of Rye whiskey.
Sazerac and Jack Daniels Rye are examples of the latter two styles.Sazerac is closer to the latter and Jack Daniels Rye closer to the latter.
