Elijah Craig Single Barrel Barrel Proof Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey

This Elijah Craig Barrel Proof, is a single barrel release specially selected by Jensen's Liquors. Elijah Craig Single Barrel Barrel Proof is a non-chill filtered, barrel proof version of Elijah Craig Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey. To sip Barrel Proof is to experience Bourbon in its purest form: uncut, straight from the barrel, and without chill filtering. Each bottle is hand labeled with its unique proof and batch number; but the nose, taste, and finish are pure Elijah Craig.

Elijah Craig Selection is carefully selected from 8, 9, or 10+ year barrels and bottled as Barrel Proof & Single Barrel. Proof will vary depending on each barrel selected and bottled. The higher alcohol will bring some added warmth and depth to the finish.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: Toffee, maple, sugar cookie, oak, and wet earth? Maybe a touch of vanilla and nuttiness

Palate: Less viscous than ECBP batches, there’s toffee, vanilla, and a very familiar flavor I can’t quite place. Maybe caramel latte? There’s some oakiness to it but not overpowering, just enough to cut back some of the sweetness. There’s maybe a bit of citrus and mint too

Finish: Pepper and heat set in and coat the mouth with oak and leather. Dried fruits show up and there’s some surprising minty flavor too
