Sazerac Rye Whiskey dates back to the 1800s, a time when saloons veiled as coffee houses began lining the streets of New Orleans. The famed Sazerac Coffee House on Royal Street served toddies made with rye whiskey and Peychaud's Bitters, leading to the creation of the "Sazerac"—America's first branded cocktail. This whiskey not only started a cocktail revolution but also became a cornerstone of New Orleans' vibrant drinking culture.
