Elijah Craig Barrel Proof Batch #B523
Regular price $125.00
The signature Bourbon bearing the name of Rev. Elijah Craig, a Bourbon pioneer who is credited with being the first distiller to age whiskey in charred oak barrels. Uncut, straight from the barrel without chill filtering, the nose, taste, and finish created by 12 years of aging are preserved in their simplest form. At full barrel proof, you can enjoy Elijah Craig much the same way the Master Distillers do when they sample straight from the barrel in Heaven Hills' Kentucky rickhouses. Elijah Craig Barrel Proof is a bold and honest expression of what charred oak barrel aging can do for Bourbon, from the man who originated the process.
Nose: Caramel with toasted oak, fruit notes of apple and orange.
Palate: Rich vanilla, caramel and butterscotch along with spices of black pepper and cinnamon at the back of the palate.
Finish: Nicely layered showcasing all flavors, fades slowly then lingers as it cools.
