Description

George T. Stagg Jr. Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey is a barrel-proof bourbon from the award-winning Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky — bottled uncut and unfiltered to preserve the full character of the barrel. A younger, more accessible sibling to the legendary George T. Stagg from the Antique Collection, the Jr. release carries the same high-proof Buffalo Trace DNA without the allocation-only scarcity of its namesake.

On the palate, expect a dense, full-bodied profile: dark caramel, toasted oak, brown sugar, dried cherry, and a layer of baking spice that builds on the long finish. The uncut proof delivers genuine intensity — a bold sipper for drinkers who want maximum flavor per ounce, and a bourbon with enough backbone to cut through a stirred cocktail without losing identity. Add a single drop of water in the glass to open up the nose and watch fresh oak and caramel lift to the top.

Buffalo Trace's barrel-proof releases are among the most sought-after American whiskies on the market, and George T. Stagg Jr. offers a rare chance to own a bottle from that program without chasing secondary-market prices on the full Stagg. If you already pour Buffalo Trace, Eagle Rare, or Weller, this is a natural step up the proof ladder. Pair with a Glencairn and patient sipping.

Ships to most US states. Adult-signature required at delivery.

Nose

  • Bright and sweet with notes of dry candy, especially Mike and Ike
  • Hints of dried pear and apple skin
  • Warm aromas of brown sugar, cinnamon-raisin bagel, and a touch of lemon Pledge
  • Faint backdrop of baked cherry pie and sweet tarts

Palate

  • Hot and punchy on the first sip—high proof is immediately noticeable
  • Opens with savory notes oddly reminiscent of refried beans and taquitos, then transitions
  • Core flavors include vanilla, nutmeg, and cinnamon
  • Evolving notes of cherry, with a light mouthfeel despite the proof
  • Ethanol-forward but not overly complex

Finish

  • Medium to long, with lingering clove, brown sugar, mint, and cherry hots
  • Faint hints of buttercream, Luxardo cherry, and a sweet simple syrup tingle
  • A touch of oak, leather, and dark chocolate creeps in at the very end
How to drink

🥃 Neat (Recommended)

  • Best enjoyed neat in a Glencairn glass to fully appreciate the layered nose and bold palate.
  • Let it sit for a few minutes after pouring to allow the ethanol to mellow and flavors to open up.

🧊 With a Few Drops of Water

  • A few drops of water can soften the intense heat and bring forward deeper dark fruit, vanilla, and oak notes.
  • Ideal for those who want a more approachable sip without diluting too much character.

🧊 On a Large Ice Cube

  • A slow-melting ice cube tones down the proof over time while unlocking subtle hints of leather, brown sugar, and cherry.
  • Great for sipping slowly over conversation.

🍫 Pairing Ideas

  • Dark chocolate, salted nuts, or a charcuterie board with rich cheeses enhance the warm spice and sweet depth.
  • Pairs well with a premium cigar—especially one with cocoa or earthy undertones.
