Stagg Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey

Aromas: Initial notes of caramel lead, accompanied by fruity hints of berries—blackberry, raspberry, and perhaps a touch of blueberry—alongside delicate floral tones of white pepper and oak.

Palate: Leather, tobacco, and oak greet the palate upfront, followed by nuances of vanilla and peppery spice in the background. Pairing with a dried cranberry reveals citrus undertones of orange zest and lemon. With a pecan, the tannins of the nut intertwine with those of the oak, resulting in a notably dry and woody sensation.

Finish: The finish lingers long and dry, characterized by pronounced oak and peppery spice. The dried cranberry attenuates the finish, diminishing the pepper spice significantly. Conversely, the pecan extends the finish, with oak tannins dominating and a subtle hint of black pepper spice lingering.
