Sagamore Jester Mead Cask Finish Rye Whiskey

We are excited to present our newest offering from our ongoing partnership with Orchid Cellar Meadery & Winery in Middletown, MD. Orchid Cellar barrel-aged an orange bochet—a caramelized honey mead fermented with zesty oranges—to create their “Jester” mead, and we finished our 7-year-old straight rye whiskey for an additional 2 years in these barrels to craft this enchanting spirit. This whiskey opens with floral sweetness, powdered sugar, and rich chocolate pie, followed by subtle notes of honeycomb and orange marmalade before a classic rye spice finish.
