Description
Stagg Barrel Proof Batch 24D is a robust, high-octane technical allocation produced at the Buffalo Trace Distillery (DSP-KY-113). Released in the winter of 2024 as a surprise fourth batch for that calendar year, this expression continues the brand’s contemporary naming convention while dropping the “Jr” moniker. The liquid is crafted from the distillery’s highly guarded Low-Rye Mashbill #1, which contains 10% or less rye to favor a sweeter, corn-forward framework. Though it lacks a formal age statement, the distillery specifies a minimum maturation threshold of eight years in new charred American oak barrels.
Bottled uncut and unfiltered at 127.4 proof, the technical profile is shaped by years of active warehouse breathing, which concentrated wood sugars and esters into a highly viscous body. It delivers a dense, dark profile featuring bold layers of sweet brown sugar, rich caramel, and macerated cherries, balanced by a sharp mid-palate kick of clove, cinnamon, and toasted oak.
