Discover the GREATNESS WITHIN
Elijah Craig BARREL PROOF
To sip Barrel Proof is to experience Bourbon in its purest form: uncut, straight from the barrel, and without chill filtering. Each bottle has its own unique age statement, proof, and batch number allowing for subtle nuances from batch to batch; but the nose, taste, and finish are pure Elijah Craig.

CELEBRATED BY EXPERTS.
ENJOYED BY ALL.
"It is a mouth-filling, deeply satisfying whiskey, amazingly palatable even at full proof, that will delight many drinkers at a great price. Virtues we can all agree on."
“Few brands afford such an easy source of batch-vs-batch comparisons as Elijah Craig Barrel Proof.”
"Barrel Proof is definitely worth a try for a blast of high-proof whiskey and 12-year-old age statement."
"A sip of Elijah Craig brings forth phenomenal flavors and glamorous aromas. It's Bourbon at its apex."
“An instant classic… A120 is stellar. This version gives me what I seek in whiskey, and what I find lacking in a lot of bourbons. I like the cigar and ashy palate it provides.”
TASTING NOTES BARREL PROOF
“The nose will knock you off your feet. Lots of rye, barrel, heath bar and leather. The palate is ridiculously viscous, with cinnamon candies, rye, barrel, roasted vanilla bean and chocolate.”
