Whiskey Crusaders Whiskey Castle
Featuring Sagamore National Brand Ambassador Tim McEveily

The Whiskey Crusaders are excited to welcome Sagamore Whiskey back to the Whiskey Castle for another special evening—and this one brings our history with Sagamore full circle.

Our relationship with Sagamore goes all the way back to 2018, when we hosted the launch of Sagamore Port Finish Rye right in my living room. That evening marked the first launch of the Port Finish outside the state of Maryland, long before the Whiskey Castle became what it is today.

Now, eight years later, Sagamore is coming back to us for another launch—this time for something completely new.

🥃 The Launch of the BRAND-NEW Sagamore Bourbon

Join us Friday, September 25th as National Brand Ambassador Tim McEveily takes us through the story and evolution of Sagamore, from the rye whiskies that built its reputation to the next chapter for the Baltimore brand: the launch of the brand-new Sagamore Bourbon.
