Stagg Kentucky Straight Bourbon Batch 24C 128.9 Proof

A Legacy of Excellence in High-Proof Bourbon

The Stagg brand is a tribute to George T. Stagg, one of the most influential figures in bourbon history. Stagg played a pivotal role in shaping the bourbon industry in the late 19th century, overseeing operations at what is now known as the Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky. With a legacy spanning over 200 years, Buffalo Trace has become one of the most revered names in American whiskey, known for its meticulously crafted bourbons, exceptional aging techniques, and commitment to quality.

The Stagg line was introduced as a way to provide bourbon enthusiasts with an uncut, unfiltered, barrel-proof experience—capturing the raw, intense flavors straight from the barrel. Unlike its ultra-aged counterpart, George T. Stagg, the Stagg Kentucky Straight Bourbon releases focus on younger yet powerful bourbons, typically aged 7 to 10 years, delivering a bold, full-bodied profile with deep complexity.
