Old Stagg 6 Years Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey 43.0% ABV for S.I.L.V.A. Paris - rare old 4/5 quart bottling from the 1960s of the O.F.C. Stagg Distillery!
The O.F.C. Distillery was purchased by George Stagg in 1878, and, in 1904, renamed the George T. Stagg Distillery. In 1886, Stagg installed steam heating in the storage warehouses, the first climate controlled warehouse for aging whiskey in the nation. Albert Blanton became president in 1921. During Prohibition, this was one of the few distilleries in the nation to be issued a federal permit to bottle medicinal whiskey, and, after 1930, to produce more. It continued to do so until the repeal of the Prohibition in 1933. The distillery was greatly expanded and modernized after it was bought by Schenley in the 1930s. It was sold a final time in 1992 and was renamed Buffalo Trace Distillery, because it was said to be built on an ancient Buffalo crossing on the banks of the Kentucky River. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2001 and designated a National Historic Landmark in 2013. It claims to be the oldest continuously operating distillery in the United States.
Today Buffalo Trace Distillery brings with its Antique Collection every year five highly coveted bourbons on the market. They are so rare that they are difficult to find even in the US and the coveted bottlings are sold in a limited edition in a short time. This is particularly true for the flagships of Pappy Van Winckle, George T. Stagg, Eagle Rare and William Larue Weller.
