Elijah Craig Bourbon 18 Year Single Barrel

Wine Enthusiast 95 points - Due to inventory shortages, this bottling had been discontinued; in fall 2015, it returned after a three-year hiatus. This is a robust, full-flavored whiskey, scented with oak and toffee. It tastes almost like an Old Fashioned, meaning distinct orange peel and cherry notes intertwined with the vanilla and caramel. The long finish offers vanilla, oak and orange peel. 15,000 bottles released.

On tasting bombastic flavors of toasted oak, baked peach, and dried honey erupt and linger. -2019 Ultimate Spirits Challenge (Excellent, Highly Recommended).April/2019 Elijah Craig 18-Year-Old Single Barrel was first introduced in 1994, and quickly gained legendary status at a time when super-premium Bourbon offerings were few and far betwe
