BATCH 22a (Fred Minnick Award Winner)

KENTUCKY STRAIGHT BOURBON WHISKEY
George T. Stagg built the most dominant American distillery of the 19th century, during a time known as the Gilded Age of Bourbon. Uncut and unfiltered, this robust bourbon whiskey ages for nearly a decade and boasts the bold character that is reminiscent of the man himself.

With a taste profile similar to the elder George T. Stagg, Stagg  is also barrel proof, uncut and unfiltered, but aged in charred white oak barrels for eight years. A favourite of whiskey reviewers, it has won five double gold medals, 12 gold medals, and many other accolades.

TASTING NOTES

Rich, sweet, chocolate and brown sugar flavours mingle in perfect balance with the bold rye spiciness. The boundless finish lingers with hints of cherries, cloves and smokiness.
