    Distillery: Elijah Craig 94 proof Age: NA Type: Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey Alc. strength: 47% 70 cl. Other: Small Batch
    Elijah Craig Small Batch Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey Bottled at 47% vol. This whiskey is a so-called "Small Batch Bourbon", and the distillery has been using the technique since before it even got its name. Elijah Craig has won a host of awards, including two gold medals at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition, Whisky Magazine's Best of the Best Premium Bourbon and Jim Murray's Whisky Bibles Best Bourbon Color: Deep copper color Aroma: Honey, caramel, cocoa, almonds and apricot are just a few of the goodies found on the nose. Vanilla, Swiss Mint, warm wheat bread and freshly sawn oak round off a wonderfully delightful nosing experience. Taste: A full-bodied spicy and pleasantly oily texture fills the mouth. Maple syrup, Swiss Mint, apricot and dark caramel occupy the mouth. The finish is slightly burnt, with notes of oak, vanilla and nutmeg. Comment: Only casks of exceptionally high character are bottled as Elijah Craig. The casks come from the so-called "Honey Spots" in the large leaky wooden warehouses. Inside the center of the 15 meter high warehouses are special areas where the bourbon barrels store optimally and develop a particularly sought-after complex character. These areas are called "Honey Spots" and are used for Elijah Craig bourbon. Incidentally, the climate in Kentucky is subject to incredible seasonal climatic fluctuations. Summers are very hot with temperatures up to 40°C and an almost tropical humidity of 90-95%. Winters, on the other hand, are very cold with snow piled up in large drifts against the warehouses. This incredible temperature fluctuation particularly affects the maturation of Bourbon whiskey.Elijah Craig- is named after the entrepreneurial Baptist minister Elijah Craig, who is credited with "creating" the type of bourbon we drink today. Elijah Craig He discovered that the color and flavor of bourbon whiskey was greatly enhanced by aging it in oak barrels that were charred on the inside. It is this process that gives bourbon whiskey its reddish-brown color, soft spice and sweet flavor.Elijah Craig founded its distillery in 1789 in La Fayette County, not Bourbon County, which is where bourbon whiskey comes from today.
