George T. Stagg Bourbon 2023 135 Proof

The Buffalo Trace Antique Collection celebrates the heritage of the the Sazerac Company and the Buffalo Trace distillery, so it is only fitting that one of its products pay tribute to both the man who saved the distillery in the late 19th century, but also recognises Buffalo Trace's identity for all but five years of the previous century.

The 2023 edition is a 15 year and 3 month old bourbon bottled at 135 proof.

"George T. Stagg, a sought-after Kentucky bourbon whose annual release is an event among aficionados, is returning for 2022, after a two-year absence.

There was no 2021 release for George T. Stagg, a barrel-proof, unfiltered bourbon, because Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Ky., did not consider the barrels of whiskey it put down for the purpose in 2006 to be up to the usual standard."

“It just didn’t look right,” Drew Mayville, the master blender at Buffalo Trace, said last year. “It didn’t match the taste profile we expect from Stagg.”

George T. Stagg Bourbon is a highly sought-after and coveted bourbon whiskey produced by the Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky. Made from a blend of corn, rye, and barley, this bourbon is aged for a minimum of 15 years in oak barrels before being bottled at its natural barrel proof.
