Sagamore Double Oak vs Signature vs Cask Strength
In this Sagamore Spirit Double Oak Rye review we line the bottle up against the two Sagamore ryes buyers cross-shop most, so you can see exactly where the toasted-oak middle child fits. The Sagamore Spirit Double Oak Rye proof of 96.6 (48.3% ABV) sits between the easygoing 83-proof Signature Rye and the full-throttle 112.2-proof Cask Strength.
| Spec | Signature Rye | Double Oak (this bottle) | Cask Strength |
|---|---|---|---|
| Proof | 83 | 96.6 | 112.2 |
| ABV | 41.5% | 48.3% | 56.1% |
| Age | 4–5 yrs | 4–5 yrs + 18-mo toasted-stave finish | 4–7 yrs |
| Finishing | None (charcoal-filtered) | Toasted new-oak staves, 18 months | None — bottled uncut |
| Typical price | ~$40 | $60–80 | ~$60–75 |
Bottom line on the Sagamore Double Oak Rye price and where it lands in the range: at a typical $60–80 it costs roughly double the Signature bottle but trades blows with Cask Strength, so the real question is whether you want extra toasted-oak sweetness or raw proof. Our community scores Double Oak 4.3 out of 5. For the full palate breakdown see the Sagamore Double Oak Rye tasting notes above, or browse every independent rye whiskey review we've published.
