Upcoming
Every event puts one distillery, blender or bottler in the room. They tell you how the whiskey got made, and you taste it with the people who made it.
Roundtable · Sign-ups closed · Online

No. 009 · Bottled
Pursuit Spirits • Sourced from Sagamore Spirit · 5 years old • 52% rye mashbill • 128 proof
Pursuit Spirits reserves the Pursuit Series for sourced single barrels too good to blend. This one comes from Sagamore Spirit. Super silky, oily mouthfeel, with all the rye character we wanted at 128 proof, without drinking too hot or aggressive. An excellent example of what Sagamore rye can be.
