E259 - Stagg 24C & 24D

Even though it's 2025. the 2024 batches of Stagg (Jr) are still just now hitting certain markets. It's hard to believe that there are four batches of Stagg now! How the times have changed. Uncut and unfiltered, Stagg is a classic bourbon that is approximately a decade old, carries a high proof, and represents the one of the pioneers of what we now know as modern day Buffalo Trace. This whiskey needs no introduction. We've reviewed it before, but Stagg newbies and enthusiasts alike know that there is a lot of variation between batches. Thanks to a wonderful listener (Brian) who sent us samples of both batches, we are able to give you our honest and candid assessment. Some have said that Stagg 24D is one of the best batches in recent years. What do we think? You'll have to listen to find out. We also talk about a bad grilling experience that Anthony had recently as well as some local bourbon drama. We forgot to do a "pass, try, or buy," but Stagg is always a buy if you can get it for retail price. --------------------------SocialsIG: https://www.instagram.com/themashupkyFB: https://www.facebook.com/themashupkyYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@themashupkyPartnership(s)Visit Bourbonoutfitter.com and enter code THEMASHUP for a special discount or visit bourbonoutfitter.com/THEMASHUPVisit https://woodworkcollective.shop and enter code MASHUP for a 15% discount on your orderMusic: All the Fixings by Zachariah HickmanThank you so much for listening!
