Stagg Kentucky Straight Bourbon Batch 25D 129.2 Proof
End the year on a high note with **Stagg Kentucky Straight Bourbon Batch 25D**. As the final release of the 2025 calendar, Batch 25D brings the heat with a staggering **129.2 Proof (64.6% ABV)**. This release epitomizes the "Stagg Jr." legacy—uncut, unfiltered, and uncompromising. It represents the pinnacle of Buffalo Trace's high-rye mash bill, delivering a sensory experience that is as intense as it is refined.
Aged for approximately 8-9 years in new charred American oak, Batch 25D is characterized by its deep, brooding profile. The high alcohol content amplifies the rich oils and esters, creating a texture that is thick and chewy. While earlier batches this year leaned into fruit or spice, Batch 25D is a powerhouse of dark chocolate, molasses, and seasoned oak, making it the perfect pour for cold winter nights.
Key Features
- Producer: Buffalo Trace Distillery (Frankfort, KY)
- Batch: 25D (Late 2025 Release)
- Proof: 129.2 (64.6% ABV)
- Mash Bill: Mash Bill #1 (Corn, Rye, Malted Barley)
- Profile: Uncut, Unfiltered, Barrel Proof
Tasting Notes
- Nose: Intense and aromatic. A massive hit of burnt brown sugar and toasted marshmallow is followed by notes of dried fig, leather, and a sharp punch of cinnamon.
- Palate: oily and mouth-coating. Flavors of dark cocoa, espresso bean, and black cherry dominate, supported by a backbone of spicy rye and charred oak.
- Finish: Exceptionally long and warm. The high proof delivers a lasting "Kentucky Hug" filled with notes of tobacco, vanilla pod, and cracked black pepper.
Why Choose Batch 25D?
- Proof Powerhouse: At nearly 130 proof, this is one of the strongest releases in recent memory, offering maximum flavor intensity for the true proof hound.
- The 2025 Finale: Completes the 2025 vertical collection, standing as the boldest and most aggressive expression of the year.
- Pure Bourbon Experience: Bottled straight from the barrel without water or filtration, this is bourbon in its rawest, most authentic form.
