Elijah Craig Barrel Proof
Country: USA
Region: Kentucky
Type: Bourbon
Bottler: Distiller
ABV: 64.15%
Score: 94 Points
This cask-strength, unfiltered Bourbon is now in widespread release after being available only at Heaven Hill’s Bourbon Heritage Center (where this sample came from). While the ABV will vary from batch to batch, the impact on one’s nose and palate should be consistent. The nose has honey and pepper notes with touches of oak, campfire smoke, and dark chocolate. The taste is mouth-filling, peppery, and powerful with chili powder and cinnamon balanced by honey, caramel, and cocoa notes. The finish is chewy and long with good spices that fade slowly and a slight dryness. Excellent! (March, 2013)
