About the Whiskey:
Elijah Craig 18 Year-Old Single Barrel Bourbon is bottled solely from one barrel hand-selected by our Master Distillers, not from the mingling of many barrels, which is the practice for standard and Small Batch Bourbons.
Elijah Craig 18 Year-Old Single Barrel Bourbon is among the oldest Single Barrel Bourbons available in the world. Only a handful of the millions of barrels of Bourbon aging in Kentucky have been allowed to mature this long.
The brand carries the name of Rev. Elijah Craig, the man who discovered the method of making true Kentucky Bourbon when he stored his wares in barrels that had been charred in a fire.

"This is a robust, full-flavored whiskey, scented with oak and toffee. It tastes almost like an Old Fashioned, meaning distinct orange peel and cherry notes intertwined with the vanilla and caramel. The long finish offers vanilla, oak and orange peel."
