Sagamore Spirit
ActiveAbout
A Maryland rye whiskey distillery founded by Under Armour founder Kevin Plank, aiming to revive Maryland's lost rye whiskey tradition. Located in a beautifully restored waterfront property in Baltimore's Port Covington neighborhood, with water piped from the limestone springs at Plank's Sagamore Farm in the Maryland horse country. Before Prohibition, Maryland was one of America's great rye whiskey regions -- Sagamore Spirit is the most ambitious effort to reclaim that heritage. Initially sourced rye from MGP while their own distillate matured, then transitioned to estate-distilled expressions. Their flagship rye has a distinctive profile: spicy but approachable, reflecting the Maryland style that once rivaled Pennsylvania rye. A significant investment in both whiskey production and Baltimore's waterfront revitalization.
