The Sazerac Company was established in the 1850s by Thomas H. Handy, who purchased the Sazerac Coffee House and began importing rye whiskey. Today, the brand remains a cornerstone of American spirits culture, distilled under the strict standards of Buffalo Trace in Frankfort, Kentucky.
Sazerac Rye is produced at the historic Buffalo Trace Distillery, the oldest continuously operating distillery in America. The brand pays homage to the legendary Sazerac Coffee House in New Orleans, where the official cocktail of the city was born.
