This limited-edition release is bottled straight from the barrel, ensuring that none of the whiskey's natural richness is lost. With its deep amber color, Batch No. 6 is as visually striking as it is flavorful.

There's also a subtle undertone of toasted nuts and cinnamon, adding complexity to the aroma.
The first sip reveals a full-bodied and intense palate, with layers of flavor that unfold gradually. Dark chocolate, molasses, and sweet corn form the foundation, while notes of allspice, clove, and black pepper add a spicy kick. Mid-palate, the whiskey evolves to reveal dried fruits, particularly figs and raisins, which provide a touch of sweetness that complements the more robust flavors. The influence of the oak barrel is evident, with a strong presence of charred wood and smoky undertones that give the bourbon its depth.
The finish is long and warming, characteristic of a high-proof bourbon. It lingers on the palate with echoes of dark chocolate, toasted oak, and a hint of tobacco, leaving a rich and satisfying aftertaste that invites another sip. The intensity of the finish is a hallmark of the Stagg Jr. series, making Batch No. 6 a whiskey that commands attention and respect.
