Collection: Stagg

Stagg Jr is a line of bourbon whiskeys produced by the Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky. It is named after George T. Stagg, a legendary figure in the bourbon industry and one of the pioneers of the distillery. Stagg Jr is a younger and more accessible version of the highly sought-after George T. Stagg bourbon, which is part of Buffalo Trace's prestigious Antique Collection.

Stagg Jr is known for its high proof and robust flavor profile, appealing to whiskey enthusiasts who appreciate bold and intense expressions. Like its older counterpart, Stagg Jr is made from a mash bill of corn, rye, and malted barley and undergoes a meticulous distillation and aging process.

What sets Stagg Jr apart is its barrel proof nature, meaning it is bottled directly from the barrel without any dilution or filtration. This results in a potent and unadulterated whiskey experience, showcasing the raw and concentrated flavors of the bourbon.
While the exact proof may vary from batch to batch, Stagg Jr typically boasts a high alcohol content, often exceeding 130 proof (65% alcohol by volume). This high proof contributes to its intense and complex flavor profile, characterized by rich caramel, vanilla, dark chocolate, ripe fruits, and spice notes, all harmoniously balanced with the influence of oak and charred wood.
Stagg Jr has gained a loyal following among bourbon enthusiasts who appreciate its strength, depth of flavor, and the heritage associated with the Stagg name. It offers an opportunity to enjoy a high-quality and unfiltered bourbon whiskey without the rarity and price tag of its older counterpart.
