STAGG JR. BARREL PROOF BOURBON WHISKEY

‘

Detailed Description
First introduced in August 2013, Stagg Jr. Barrel Proof Bourbon is uncut (no water added) and unfiltered like its bourbon “father” George T. Stagg. Distilled at Buffalo Trace, each batch will vary in both proof and age, but expect the bourbon to be around 8-9 years old with proofs ranging in the 130+ area. Stagg Jr. will be considerably more affordable and easier to find than its predecessor.
Stagg Jr. Barrel Proof Bourbon Whiskey Tasting Notes
