Stagg Jr 127.8 Proof 24B – Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey

Stagg Jr. 127.8 Proof (Batch 24B) is a powerhouse expression from Buffalo Trace, offering a rare glimpse into the bold side of bourbon. With an intense 127.8 proof, this limited-edition release pushes the boundaries of what whiskey enthusiasts crave: rich complexity and deep, fiery character. The high proof amplifies the flavors, delivering a robust symphony of caramel, dark chocolate, and brown sugar, all wrapped in a cloak of oak and spice.

Aromas of toasted vanilla and sweet leather rise from the glass, mingling with the unmistakable heat of its proof. Upon tasting, the whiskey dances across the palate with a full-bodied intensity, giving way to notes of black pepper, cinnamon, and a gentle wave of smokiness. The finish is long and warming, lingering with a touch of charred wood and a slight fruitiness, reminiscent of dried cherries or raisins.

The 24B batch of Stagg Jr. represents a striking balance between power and refinement, where the bold, high-proof punch is tempered by layers of complexity. It’s a bourbon for connoisseurs who seek not just strength but depthan unapologetic, barrel-strength whiskey that rewards those bold enough to embrace its fire.
