George T. Stagg Bourbon (Fall 2018)

Brown sugar and pecan pie! Added a few drops of water and it got a bit sweeter. A bottle that never disappoints me.

Holy cow. Does bourbon get better than this? Great mouthfeel, maple, cinnamon, glazed donuts, wonderful slow burn.

george t stagg year to year is consistently one of my favorite bourbons. it has a ridiculous finish that continues to hang and develop. if a better bourbon happens to exist.. i want it!!!!

I feel unqualified to review this bourbon since my palate is still developing, but here we go... Nose is subtle and warm, very inviting and oak dominant. Caramel sweetness lingers. Palate starts with intense caramel which fades to dry tobacco and bitter spice. Marshmallow and oak follow up with an electric mouth feel which is a bit odd. Rye and bubble gum sweetness are on the finish. This is a wild ride of a bourbon, and worth over paying a tiny bit to taste once a year.
