Stagg Jr Bourbon Batch 1 134.4 Proof - Flask Fine Wine & Whisky

Highlights

A barrel proof bourbon from George T. Stagg, crafted in Kentucky. This robust whiskey is uncut and unfiltered, aged for nearly a decade to develop its bold character. Rich notes of cherry dominate the palate, complemented by hints of oak that enhance its creamy mouthfeel.

The very first release of Stagg Jr. Barrel Proof Bourbon

"Delicious. Velvety and creamy, the strong cherry never gets anywhere close to cough syrup, staying fresh and/or candied. Enough proof to keep the sweetness in check. Little hints of oak, but no dryness, just adds to the creaminess and body. Mouthfeel just keeps getting better. Even though it’s a tad one-note, it’s a great note."

"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. Batch number and release can be found in the title."

One of the real fathers of bourbon is Edmund Haynes Taylor Jr. He was adopted by his uncle, Edmund Haynes Taylor Snr., who rechristened him as his junior, after becoming an orphan at the age of five in 1830. Due to his honorary title of Kentucky Colonel, E.H. Taylor Jr. is also referred to as Colonel Taylor. Taylor established and owned seven distinct distilleries throughout the course of his career, and because of his advocacy for the Bottled in Bond Act of 1897, he is regarded as "the father of modern bourbon."

He established the Old Taylor distillery close to Frankfort in Kentucky ten years earlier after selling his interest in the OFC distillery (now Buffalo Trace) to George T. Stagg. The distillery, which gave rise to bourbon tourism, included a fake castle and subterranean gardens on the property. Here, he founded the Old Taylor brand, which was later acquired by National Distillers, one of the "big four" distilling companies that controlled the post-repeal market, after Prohibition.
