Description

Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey
Distillery Bottling 750ml / 65.2% / 130.4 Proof

An old bottle of the 2020 release of George T. Stagg Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey, Buffalo Trace's flagship bourbon from their prestige Antique Collection. It's no exaggeration to say that this is one of the best modern bourbons that money can buy.

This 2020 George T. Stagg 15-year-old cask strength bourbon from Buffalo Trace was distilled in 2005 and bottled at its epic cask strength of 65.2% - higher than it went into the casks at, thanks to Kentucky's climate, but relatively standard for George T. Stagg, some editions of which clock in at over 70%.
