The George T. Stagg Barrel Proof Limited Edition bourbon is a 15-year-old Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, first introduced in 2004 and bottled in the fall of 2019. This highly sought-after whiskey, part of Buffalo Trace's esteemed Antique Collection, is celebrated for its uncut and unfiltered quality, boasting an impressive 58.45% (116.9 proof) alcohol content.
Aged in new charred oak casks, this full-bodied whiskey offers a delightful aroma of sweet toffee, dark chocolate, vanilla, nougat, and molasses. The palate is rich with notes of dates, tobacco, dark berries, spearmint, and subtle hints of coffee that linger in the finish.
The nose may be somewhat muted compared to the bold experience that awaits the palate. Big notes of cherry, sweet oak, vanilla, and cola jump to the fore, making it easily approachable neat. Mid-palate, the oak and spice emerge and stay through to the finish while remaining juicy and not dry. The additional tasting notes reveal the nuances: cherries and grapes, root beer, cherry cough drop, and vanilla.
Founded by Harrison Blanton in 1812, the first official distillery on what is now Buffalo Trace was established. Over the years, it has undergone various expansions and name changes, including Old Fire Copper (OFC) and George T. Stagg Distillery, before becoming Buffalo Trace Distillery. With a rich history spanning over two centuries, Buffalo Trace has perfected the art of bourbon-making, producing high-quality whiskeys that reflect their dedication to tradition and innovation.
This limited edition of George T. Stagg bourbon is a testament to the distillery's commitment to quality and craftsmanship, making it a must-have for whiskey connoisseurs and collectors alike.
