Product Details on the Elijah Craig

This remarkable Extra-aged Rye Whiskey was the very first one to bear an inscription of Elijah Craig: the entrepreneur and distiller who is acknowledged as the first person to age his own American Whiskey in oak barrels that had been charred to create Bourbon. Elijah’s visionary spirit and dedication to the craft are fully on display in the Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey, which is made using barrels that have been specifically chosen from our distillers. When poured into a glass, Elijah Craig Rye reveals the intoxicating spice of rye grain perfectly balanced by corn to give distinctive smoothness and character.

test is really nice but bit expensive.
Simone – May 17, 2022

I love this and so when I tried this I am now torn because this flavour is delicious.
I drink it with cloudy lemonade and ice.
Dyanna – May 17, 2022

Was hesitant at first especially with the price of it but it far exceeded my expectations. Could drink it straight which is a rarity for me and there was a distinctive lack of hand sanitizer aftertaste seen with other vodka. Would highly recommend to others and is really nice when mixed with tropical fruit juices.

Really nice. Tastes like Holiday

One of my favourite flavours from them finished it in less than a hour, alcoholic??? Maybe.
Angelle – May 18, 2022

This has to be one of my favourites
It is a little sweeter than I thought it would be but paired with ice and a splash of tonic water is perfect!

Tasting notes

Aged oak, spiced vanilla, with notes of mint and chocolate. Richly textured, nutty, and semisweet. Initial bursts of honey give way to toasted wood and pleasant char. Lively and engaging, then lingers with vanilla and pepper.

Short Story

Following the defeat of the British at the Battle of Yorktown during the American Revolutionary War, the territory west of the Appalachian mountains became known as Kentucky County. At the time, the territory was considered part of Virginia and was overseen by a military governor named John J. Bowman. In order to encourage westward expansion, Virginia issued pioneers who agreed to settle in Kentucky County “corn writs,” which granted the pioneers 60 acres of land if they agreed to settle in Kentucky and start farming corn.

One year after the defeat of the British, a Baptist minister named Elijah Craig emigrated to Fayette County (today, a part of the State of Kentucky) and purchased 1,000 acres of land in a town named Lebanon. In 1789, Craig built a distillery on his farm and is credited with being the first person to mature bourbon in charred, oak casks, earning him the title “Father of Bourbon Whiskey.”

Elijah Craig Small Batch Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey pays homage to Craig and his unique legacy. The bourbon is bottled from the marriage of fewer than 100 casks of maturing bourbon, each of which is rested in a Kentucky rickhouse for a minimum of a dozen years. The bourbon has an aroma of honey, sweet corn, vanilla, and brown sugar. The aroma gives way to notes of roasted nuts, creamy vanilla, molasses and tropical fruits on the palate, that are well-balanced by hints of dry oak and cinnamon. The finish is long and sweet and ends with a warming touch.

This unique 18-Year-Old bourbon showcases Elijah Craig’s Master Distillers’ expertise, bottled solely from the contents of one barrel, this expression of bourbon-making craftsmanship is bold and robust. Bourbon for the whiskey connoisseur, this bottle has received countless awards for its smooth yet complex flavor, including 3 Double Gold Medals at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition.
