Uncut. Unfiltered. Stagg Batch 24C — the third 2024 batch release of Buffalo Trace's annual cask-strength bourbon, named for George T. Stagg, the Gilded Age distilling magnate whose Frankfort, Kentucky facility became Buffalo Trace Distillery.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStagg (formerly Stagg Jr until 2022) is Buffalo Trace's annual batch cask-strength expression — the same uncut, unfiltered barrel-strength philosophy as the BTAC George T. Stagg, delivered in broader batch releases for greater accessibility. Each batch is a unique barrel selection at its natural proof; no two batches are identical. The 24-series represents the 2024 annual releases: Batch 24B (127.8 proof), Batch 24C (128.9 proof), and Batch 24D (127.4 proof) — three separate barrel selections in a single year spanning 1.5 proof points.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt $199.99, Batch 24C is the most accessible entry point in the entire Stagg\/Stagg Jr program — delivering the Buffalo Trace high-rye mash bill uncut and unfiltered at nearly a decade of age, at the same distillery that produces the BTAC George T.
