Final Thoughts
Batch 17 demonstrates Stagg Jr.’s ability to balance raw power with elegance. The nose greets with caramel, ripe plum, tobacco, and seasoned oak. On the palate, bold waves of dark fruit, butterscotch, cinnamon, and cocoa dominate, supported by a warming, chewy texture. The finish is long and layered, offering spice, charred oak, and sweet molasses in harmony. Bottled at over 130 proof, it demands slow sipping and reveals new dimensions with a drop of water. Pair with char-grilled steak, dark chocolate truffles, or cherry cobbler. A powerful, yet refined batch that many rank among the best.
