Sazerac 6 Year Old Straight Rye

The one and only New Orleans original, Sazerac Rye symbolizes the culture and history of the Big Easy. In the 19th century, industrious farmers and distillers in the heartland of the United States barreled and shipped their rye whiskeys down the great Mississippi River to the bustling, growing city of New Orleans. These spicy and assertive spirits fueled the whiskey culture of New Orleans and established the first American cocktail, The Sazerac. On the nose Sazerac holds notes of clove, star anise and vanilla. On the palate you can taste spice, citrus and candies with a long finish of woody smoke. Divine in an old fashioned.
