Sazerac
Sazerac is closely associated with both the classic Sazerac cocktail and the Sazerac Company, a prominent player in the American spirits industry. The Sazerac cocktail, originating in New Orleans in the early 19th century, is often considered one of the first American cocktails. Originally made with cognac, the recipe evolved to use rye whiskey and is now typically prepared with rye, a sugar cube, Peychaud’s Bitters, and an absinthe rinse, garnished with a lemon twist. This cocktail remains a symbol of New Orleans’ rich cocktail heritage.
The Sazerac Company, based in New Orleans, has a long history dating back to the mid-19th century, when the Sazerac Coffee House began serving the cocktail. Today, the company is known for its diverse portfolio of spirits, including Buffalo Trace Bourbon, Eagle Rare, and Sazerac Rye. The Sazerac Company’s influence extends across the spirits industry, and its products reflect a commitment to quality and tradition that continues to shape the world of spirits.
