Tasting Notes Of Elijah Craig Barrel Whiskey

Vital Statistics:

 The proof level of the batches of Elijah Craig Barrel Proof bottlings vary. I sampled batch C919, released in September of 2019. Aged for 12 years, this batch clocked in at 136.8 proof. It ranges from around $60-$90 in price.

Nose: 

Maple syrup, vanilla, and caramel round out the flavors that hit my nose. As stated above, be careful not to sniff to enthusiastically. It is a pleasant, but sharp nose.

Palate:

My first pass, poured neat, woke me up with its surprising heat. The high proof point of this bourbon lends itself to a bit more heat, so buyer beware. In its rawest form, this whiskey delivers sharp heat with a citrus and maple infused flavor spectrum. It is similar to drinking a chili infused crème brulé topping. There were also the distinctive flavors pulled from the oak as well as the softer, subtle whisper of roasted stone fruits such as cherry and even a bit of prune.
