Maryland Made Release Party

SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 9TH

Many years ago, Penny's Proof started as an opportunity to follow us along the journey to release products entirely made, distilled and matured by us. We are elated to share that we have now reached these incredible milestones, and we want to celebrate it with you all. We are excited to invite you to our Maryland-made Release Party on November 9th at Sagamore Spirit Distillery. Without your unwavering support this dream of bringing back Maryland Rye would have continued to be just that, a dream. We have such an incredible community who have been there with us every step of the way. This event is for you!

Why did you decide to increase the age statement of Bonded in Bond 7-year-old expression?

This year’s BIB is very special because this is the first whiskey we made when we started distilling in 2017 that has now reached 7 years of age. We simply love its complex flavor profile, because a good whiskey is always a matter of taste and not only time. Triple distilled and non-chill filtered, this hand-bottled, small-batch release delivers complex layers of rye spice, brûléed sugar, and toasty caramel, balanced with bright notes of orange zest, grilled apricots, and red berries. At 7 years old, this whiskey is an excellent example of Maryland Style whiskey, and we could not be more excited to share it with you.

Will Bottled in Bond remain a 7-year-old statement?

Our goal is always to release the best for our consumers. So, it will be the juice that tells us. Stay tuned!

Will you be hosting Penny’s Proof this year?

No, in lieu of Penny’s Proof this year, we're hosting our Maryland-made release party.

Why aren’t you doing Penny’s Proof this year?

Penny's Proof started as an opportunity for our brand fans to try whiskey 100% distilled by Sagamore but not completely ready to be packaged and sold to the general market. We are thrilled to have reached that goal with Small Batch and Botted in Bond – so we needed to change the format of the event.
