This Stagg was distilled in Spring of 1997 and aged in warehouses I,K, and Q. It's one of the weakest Staggs released in years in terms of ABV.

Nose: Oak, pine, coffee, brown sugar, sugar cane, raisins, prunes, dates.

Taste: Big body and weight on this. It's dry and spicy. You get flavors of raisins, the dates, prunes, along with rum, barrel char, anise. However, it's somewhat sour.

Finish: Hard candy. anise, char. The finish is rather creamy and very long.

This Stagg is still a very nice Bourbon but I feel that it's weaker than previous releases. Maybe my expectations are just too high. At any rate, this is a fine pour just not the best of the Antique Collection.
