This elevated rye content produces a bourbon with more pronounced spice, complexity, and depth than lower-rye expressions, while still maintaining the caramel, vanilla, and oak richness that define American straight bourbon. \u003cstrong\u003eSagamore Spirit High Rye Bourbon\u003c\/strong\u003e is a prime example of this style — bold, spice-forward, and distinctively complex.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eWhat makes Sagamore Spirit’s limestone-filtered spring water special?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSagamore Spirit\u003c\/strong\u003e uses water from a proprietary limestone-filtered spring on the historic Sagamore Farm estate in Maryland — the same farm once owned by Alfred Vanderbilt and celebrated for its thoroughbred horse racing heritage. Limestone filtration naturally removes impurities and imparts a distinctive mineral character to the water, which plays a meaningful role in the flavor profile of every Sagamore Spirit expression. This connection to Maryland’s land and heritage is central to Sagamore Spirit’s identity as a distillery committed to reviving the state’s historic whiskey tradition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eWhere can I buy Sagamore Spirit High Rye Bourbon Whiskey?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou can purchase it online through \u003cstrong\u003eDel Mesa Liquor\u003c\/strong\u003e with nationwide shipping available.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sagamore Spirit","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44323868966955,"sku":"DM17131L","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1277\/3667\/files\/SagamoreSpiritHighRyeBourbonWhiskey.jpg?v=1783489429","url":"https:\/\/www.delmesaliquor.com\/products\/sagamore-spirit-high-rye-bourbon-whiskey","provider":"Del Mesa Liquor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
