The essential spice-forward rye for the perfect Sazerac
This iconic straight rye whiskey delivers a robust palate of candied citrus, clove, and black pepper, balanced by rich caramel and vanilla. It finishes dry and crisp with lingering notes of anise and toasted oak, making it the definitive choice for classic cocktails.
Rinse a chilled rocks glass with absinthe and discard excess. Stir rye, simple syrup, and bitters with ice until cold, then strain into the prepared glass. Express lemon peel over the drink and garnish.
Serve in a rocks glass
The Sazerac Company was established in New Orleans, Louisiana, following the purchase of the Sazerac Coffee House by Thomas H. Handy in 1869. Today, the brand is synonymous with the official cocktail of New Orleans and is produced at the award-winning Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky.
Distilled at the historic Buffalo Trace Distillery, this rye whiskey symbolizes the rich spirits tradition of New Orleans. Its legacy dates back to the 1800s, when the original Sazerac Coffee House began serving drinks crafted with rye whiskey instead of cognac.
