Review [source]:

A very special whiskey, a long time in the making, this 8-year-old straight rye whiskey is a testament to the power of time. We took our straight rye whiskey and aged it in new charred American white oak barrels for 8 years, creating a complex spirit. Our Sagamore Spirit Reserve Series celebrates the legacy of Maryland distilling, with an unyielding focus on excellence from start to finish.

Dark chocolate, hazelnut, vanilla, gingerbread, peppercorn and spice that leaves a lasting finish.
