Description
Elijah Craig Toasted Barrel 94 Proof – 750 ml
Twice‑Barreled Bourbon with Sweet Toasted Oak Depth
Elijah Craig Toasted Barrel elevates the award‑winning Small Batch Bourbon through a unique double-barrel process: after ripening in charred oak, it’s finished in a second custom-toasted new oak barrel. Bottled at 94 proof (47% ABV), this expression offers rich, warm depth with toasty caramel and spice notes.

Finish: Long and warming, with lingering oak tannins, baking spice, milk chocolate, and gentle smoke.
