George T. Stagg is built on Buffalo Trace's Mash Bill #1, the low-rye bourbon recipe it shares with Eagle Rare, and bottled uncut and unfiltered at barrel strength. The 2014 release was distilled in the spring of 1998 and aged 16 years, drawn from Warehouses C, H, I, K, L, P, and Q. Buffalo Trace describes it as tasting of dark chocolate, vanilla, coffee, and dates.
