Award-winning expression marks the third Sagamore Spirit rye whiskey to land in Ontario, and British Columbia. Sagamore Spirit, the Maryland-made rye whiskey with more than 200 awards to its name, is expanding its presence north of the border with the debut of its Cask Strength Rye Whiskey in Canada. Since June, fans in Ontario, Quebec, British Columbia, Alberta, Manitoba, and Saskatchewan can find bottles of the critically lauded 112.2-proof whiskey on shelves alongside Sagamore Spirit Signature and Double Oak Rye Whiskies.

Like all of its whiskies, Sagamore Spirit Cask Strength is a blend of straight high-rye and low-rye mash bills aged four to seven years, graced with just a touch of naturally limestone-filtered water from its 1909-built spring house. The result is a complex and layered whiskey with notes of dark chocolate paired with black pepper and brown sugar.

Roy + Co. Selections Inc. will handle distribution throughout Ontario, Quebec, British Columbia, Alberta, Manitoba, and Saskatchewan. Sagamore Spirit first debuted in Canada in 2020. Sagamore Spirit Rye Whiskey can now be found in Canada, the Caribbean, China, Europe, Hong Kong, Japan, New Zealand, Panama, the Philippines, the U.K,, and the U.S.
