Elijah Craig Small Batch Bourbon
TASTING NOTE
A delicious small batch Bourbon! The nose is rich and creamy with notes of spice, vanilla, toffee and toasty oak. The palate has flavours of stewed apple, aniseed and spices with a long finish of creamy sweetness.
ABOUT THE PRODUCER
The producer of Elijah Craig, Heaven Hill Distillery, was founded shortly after the repeal of Prohibition in 1933 and has since become the largest independent, family-owned producer and marketer of distilled spirits in the United States. Heaven Hill's success is due to a mix of good business acumen, continuity, heritage and uncompromising craftsmanship. The company is still owned by descendants of the founding Shapira brothers and six generations of the famous Beam family have overseen the distillation.
Located in Bardstown, Kentucky, Heaven Hill is the world's second largest holder of Bourbon whiskey with over 1,000,000 charred white oak barrels ageing in 49 open-rick warehouses. Double-distillation takes place at the modern Bernheim facility where Craig and Parker Beam produce rye and wheat influenced Bourbons as well as straight rye, corn and wheat whiskies, using their own family yeast strain - now also in its sixth generation'.
