Description:
Solid age statements like this Elijah Craig 18yo bourbon whiskey are far and few between in the bourbon/whiskey world and require some serious finesse and know-how to carry this revered liquid for almost two decades in oak. Bottled solely from the contents of a single barrel, this expression of Elijah Craig is chewy and incredibly complex, even at 45% ABV.

With a purported Mashbill of 78% Corn, 12% Malted Barley, 10% Rye, it’s a true Bourbon whiskey for the avid drinker and/or collector having won countless awards and regularly listed as a top choice by those who appreciate a well-aged Southern tipple.

Interesting fact.
In 1789, Reverend Elijah Craig, who is credited with being the “Father of Bourbon” became the first to age his whiskey in charred Oak barrels. Since then, Elijah Craig 18yo single barrel has garnered some of the industry’s most prestigious accolades including: Whiskey of the year and Double Gold in the San Francisco World Spirits Competition.
