53: Elijah Craig Barrel Proof Bourbon

The three of us are back together again and we have 3 barrel proof bourbons ready to go.  This time, we taste a flight of the 2019 offerings of Elijah Craig Barrel Proof.

Heaven Hill released three high proof, 12 year old bourbons in 2019, as they do every year of their popular Elijah Craig Small Batch Bourbon.  The Batches are as follows:

RELEASE DATE        BATCH NO.         PROOF

January 2019         A119                       135.2

May 2019                B519                      122.2

September 2019    C919                      136.8

 

From Heaven Hill:  

To sip our Barrel Proof Bourbon is to experience Bourbon in its purest form—uncut, straight from the barrel, and without chill filtering. Each bottle is hand labeled with its unique proof and batch number but the nose, taste, and finish of every sip is pure Elijah Craig. We’re proud to say that remarkable consistency earned us the award of Whisky Advocate’s "Whisky of the Year."

With Barrel Proof, you can enjoy Elijah Craig much the same way our Master Distillers do when they sample straight from the barrel in our Kentucky rickhouses.
