Sazerac Rye Full Proof

Sazerac Rye Full Proof is bottled at the strength it leaves the barrel, delivering an intensified expression of the classic “Baby Saz” profile.

The term “full proof” applies to whiskeys that are bottled at the same proof they entered the barrel, as opposed to “barrel proof,” which refers to whiskeys that are bottled at their proof when taken from the barrel. This means that by rule, a full proof whiskey can be diluted back down to its entry proof when it exits the barrel.

On the nose, expect deep notes of cinnamon, clove, orange peel, and warm oak. The palate is rich and full-bodied, opening with rye spice and vanilla before unfolding into layers of caramel, toasted grain, and a hint of candied citrus. The finish is long, warming, and unapologetically spicy—exactly what a full-proof rye should be.

A collector’s treasure and a rye lover’s dream, this release shows Sazerac at its most powerful and pure. Perfect for sipping neat or elevating a serious cocktail.
