Sagamore Spirit: A New Era in Whiskey Production
The world of whiskey has long been plagued by a lack of transparency. Many distilleries source their whiskey from external suppliers, rather than producing it in-house. This lack of transparency has led to consumer distrust and confusion. However, one distillery is changing the game: Sagamore Spirit.
The Sagamore Spirit distillery in Baltimore, Maryland
Founded in 2013 by Kevin Plank, the former CEO of Under Armour, Sagamore Spirit has been open about sourcing whiskey from the start. However, their newest release marks a significant milestone: a 100% in-house distilled rye whiskey.
The Rise of Sagamore Spirit
Sagamore Spirit’s journey began in 2013, when Kevin Plank, along with his business partners, founded the distillery in Baltimore, Maryland. Initially, the distillery sourced whiskey from external suppliers, but they always had a vision to produce their own whiskey in-house. In 2017, they took a significant step towards achieving this goal by starting to distill whiskey on-site.

The New Small Batch Rye Whiskey
The new Small Batch Rye Whiskey is a game-changer. This whiskey is a blend of two mashbills, aged for four to six years, and bottled at 93 proof. The result is a rich, complex flavor profile with notes of caramel, black pepper, dried apricot, red apple, blackberry, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and a hint of menthol on the finish.
