Send us Fan MailBourbon enthusiasts know that high proof can deliver extraordinary flavor, but the ChiTucky Bourbon Brothers take this concept to the extreme with a mind-blowing 141 proof Binny's barrel pick of Buffalo Trace's Stagg 24B bourbon. This monster whiskey—at a staggering 70.5% alcohol—delivers an unforgettable tasting experience that demands respect and patience.Despite its intimidating proof, this Stagg reveals remarkable complexity for those brave enough to persevere past the initial heat. Cherry cola, leather, creme brulee, and even root beer notes emerge alongside a mouthfeel described as "oily" but never "sticky." What truly distinguishes this bourbon is its extraordinarily long finish—a warming transition gracefully from sweet to peppery and lingers seemingly forever.At $70 retail, this represents exceptional value, but this is absolutely not for bourbon beginners—it requires multiple sips to acclimate the palate before revealing its full glory. For seasoned whiskey lovers seeking the ultimate high-proof experience, this particular Stagg barrel pick delivers a masterclass in how intensity can enhance rather than overwhelm complexity when in the hands of master distillers.
