Old Stagg Special Reserve, 19yr Bonded Medicinal Pint, 1914-1933

This bottle was the flagship label for the Geo T Stagg distillery In Frankfort Kentucky that is now Buffalo Trace. This bottle is nearly identical to the 18 year Old Stagg posted here except it was barreled one year earlier. These bottles are prime examples of how much whiskey had to sit in barrels for long periods of time and how distilleries must have really struggled during Prohibition.

Also the embossed Stagg and corn inlays are very unique with these Prohibition and Pre-Pro Staggs.
