Elijah Craig Toasted Barrel Bourbon Whiskey 700ml
47% ABV | Heaven Hill Distillery, Bardstown, Kentucky
Experience a refined evolution of classic Kentucky bourbon with Elijah Craig Toasted Barrel, a distinguished expression from Heaven Hill's acclaimed small batch lineup. This bourbon begins with fully matured Small Batch Elijah Craig, then undergoes a unique finishing process in custom-toasted new oak barrels crafted from 18-month seasoned wood. Unlike traditional charred barrels, these are toasted to varying degrees, imparting an exceptional depth and complexity while preserving the spirit’s structural integrity.
The nose is an inviting blend of toasted marshmallow, caramelised sugar, and fresh oak shavings, evolving into rich notes of milk chocolate, cinnamon, and singed orange peel. On the palate, it reveals a dense and expressive character where vanilla fudge, brown sugar, and baked apple unfold gracefully into warming spices like nutmeg, clove, and cocoa-dusted wood. The toasted oak finish adds aromatic lift and softens the edges, delivering a bold yet smooth bourbon with a distinctive toasted twist.
This bourbon stands out for its layered sweetness and spice, making it a must-have for enthusiasts seeking flavour innovation without compromising tradition. Crafted in Bardstown, Kentucky, often called the “Bourbon Capital of the World,” Elijah Craig Toasted Barrel embodies the rich heritage and craftsmanship synonymous with this renowned region.
