The One and Only New Orleans Original. Sazerac Rye Whiskey symbolizes the tradition and history of New Orleans. Rye Whiskey that dates back to the 1800’s, around the time when saloons, veiled as Coffee Houses, began lining the streets of New Orleans. It was at the Sazerac Coffee House on Royal Street where local patrons were served toddies made with Rye Whiskey and Peychaud’s Bitters. The libation became known as the “Sazerac” and America’s first branded cocktail was born. This is the whiskey that started it all

TASTING NOTES
Aromas of clove, vanilla, anise and pepper. Subtle notes of candies spices and citrus. The big finish is smooth with hints of licorice.
A member of the Buffalo Trace family of fine bourbon & whiskey this rye is exceptionally smooth with a slightly sweet finish. Excellent neat or with a single large cube. I like it more than Taylor or Mitchner. You can't go wrong.
I ordered from De Wine Spot because they had the hard-to-find Sazerac Rye for a reasonable price. It was an extremely quick delivery (within a couple days of ordering) to boot. Highly recommend!
