George T Stagg 2014 Release (138.1 Proof)

A special offering by the famous Kentucky distillery, Buffalo Trace and named after the 19th century whiskey salesman who built one of the largest and most influential distilleries in the U.S. at the time. What is now Buffalo Trace was once known as the George T Stagg distillery.

2014 was a crazy year for the bottling as even though they intention was make more on the heels of the wild success of the previous years, 348 bottles less were made than 2013 as a result of the nearly 75% lost in evaporation! What’s left is a deeply concentrated beauty with profound notes of burnt caramel, toffee, dark chocolate and dates.

Distilled in spring 1998 and aged for 16 years and four months in warehouses C, H, I, K, L, P and Q, mostly on the lower floors, this is a gorgeous whiskey that with a few drops of water absolutely explodes and unleashes a full display of brute strength and elegance.

Paying homage to the salesman, these bottlings are incredibly rare and offer some of the finest examples of Whiskey made.
