Whiskey of the Week: Sagamore Spirit Rye Double Oak

This is straight rye whiskey (which was our W.o.W back in February!) for 4 to 5 years in high-char new American oak barrels and then aged whiskey into toasted wave stave barrels for an additional 18 months. The increased surface area of the low-char, medium-plus-toast staves imparts Double Oak’s delightful caramel, toffee, hazelnut, and toasted coconut.
