Sazerac Straight Rye Whiskey, 45%

The one and only New Orleans original, Sazerac Rye symbolises 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.

Sazerac Rye is the way New Orleans does whiskey.  That means enjoying a glass at a downtown jazz club, while camping in the woods with friends, or in a winter cabin beside a warm fire. And if it’s wedding season, what better gift for the groomsmen but a bottle of  Sazerac Rye.
