Elijah Craig Toasted Barrel 47% (700ml)
Elijah Craig Toasted Barrel begins exactly as it should - with the standard Small Batch, already one of Kentucky's most respected house styles. Traditional #3 charred oak barrels. Deep caramel, warm oak, a touch of baking spice. But then, it takes a second path. Not to another continent or a wine cask, but deeper into the grain - by way of a second, slow-toasted American oak barrel.
Toasting is not charring. It's not about flame, but time. The barrel is warmed, not burned, allowing deeper caramelisation of the oak's natural sugars. The result? More vanillin, more toasted coconut, more soft spice - without the harsh tannins or astringent grip of deeper char. It's not a finish for flavour alone. It's a structural decision.
The result is a bourbon that carries all the weight of tradition, but with new contours.
