Elijah Craig 18-Year-Old Single Barrel Bourbon Returns
Heaven Hill just announced a new batch of Elijah Craig 18-Year-Old Single Barrel Bourbon, a favorite that’s been hard to find since 1994. This bourbon comes in at 90 proof, which is a bit lower than the new 15-year-old version that’s at 108 proof. When it comes to flavors, you can expect notes of oak, chocolate (both milk and dark), leather, tobacco, maple, honey, vanilla, and a hint of pepper spice. The brand is named after the Baptist preacher Elijah Craig and has been with Heaven Hill since 1986. Interestingly, the distillery hints that there might be an even older bourbon coming soon. You can get this latest release at stores or online through ReserveBar.
