The distillery released their first Stagg Jr. in August of 2013 and they have produced about two batches every year. Each batch of Stagg is blended from bourbons aged approximately 8 or 9 years, and released at a high and unique barrel proof. The proof numbers are used to identify specific batches. These releases have received plenty of praise over the years and are beloved by many bourbon enthusiasts. Batch 13 of the Stagg Jr. was released in 2020 and it retains the intensity and complexity of the previous releases. It has spent 8 years in new charred American oak barrels. Uncut and unfiltered, it's bottled at 128.4 proof, making it a "Jr." in name only
Tasting notes
Nose: Savory warm spices, clove and cinnamon. Star anise arrives with a hint of salinity. More vanilla and caramel develop - this needs a few minutes to open up but it’s worth it.
Palate: Heat at first that sticks around at a lesser level. Tons of stone fruit and some chocolate that keeps building. Second sip is full-on chocolate covered dark and dried fruits. Mouthfeel is coating and oily.
Finish: Keeps the heat going but allows the fruity and chocolate-y flavors to shine. Long - starts fruity then goes towards the dark chocolate.
