In the glass, Stagg Barrel Proof presents a deep, rich amber hue, indicative of its maturity and the high-proof nature of this whiskey.

The palate is where Stagg truly shines, delivering an intense and full-bodied experience. Flavors of dark chocolate, brown sugar, and toffee are immediately apparent, followed by layers of rich vanilla, charred oak, and baking spices. The high proof (often well above 60% ABV) gives this bourbon a powerful kick, but it’s remarkably well-balanced, with the sweetness from the corn and the depth from the barrel aging coming through in perfect harmony.

Despite its intensity, the mouthfeel is surprisingly smooth, with a rich, oily texture that coats the palate. The finish is long and warming, with lingering notes of dark chocolate, toasted oak, and a peppery spice that gradually fades, leaving a lasting impression of this bourbon’s bold character.
