Elijah Craig Single Barrel Bourbon
With a 61.7% ABV, this 123.4-proof bourbon is a premium expression produced by Heaven Hill Distillery, the same distillery that endured a massive fire in 1996, resulting in more than 90,000 barrels of bourbon destroyed in the wreckage. Today, this single-cask bourbon receives an ideal high-aging process and shows as a very well-integrated and balanced spirit.
