Product Description
Batch A125 of Elijah Craig Barrel Proof is a standout bourbon with exceptional balance—bold yet accessible, intense in flavor but still refined. At its proof and age, it offers both richness and elegance, making it an excellent choice for sipping and appreciating the depth of a barrel-proof release.
Origins & Craftsmanship
Produced by the renowned Elijah Craig brand under the umbrella of Heaven Hill Distillery in Bardstown, Kentucky, this release follows the Barrel Proof tradition: uncut, straight from the barrel, non-chill filtered. The batch code “A125” signifies the first release of the year (“A”), in January (“1”), of the year 2025 (“25”). This edition carries an age statement of approximately 10 years and 7 months, and is bottled at around 59.1% ABV (~118.2 proof). The mash bill remains the brand’s standard ~78% corn / ~10% rye / ~12% malted barley, capturing the classic bourbon character while shining at higher proof.
Tasting Profile
Nose: Inviting aromas of caramelized sugar, vanilla custard and toasted oak greet the glass, followed by ripe dark fruit (think cherry or prune), orange peel and gentle nutmeg spice.
Palate: Rich and smooth entry with sweet vanilla bean and butterscotch. Mid-palate deepens into dark chocolate, subtle espresso, hazelnut, and dried orange zest; the rye component delivers peppery spice and a tight grain backbone.
Finish: Long, warm and structured. The finish displays dry oak tannin, cinnamon bark spice, lingering caramel and dark fruit notes, and a trace of tobacco leaf or leather. The proof shows warmth but stays integrated—giving power without bruising.
