Type: Wheat Always a great whiskey, unlike many over the years they have not changed the age or found a way to cheapen it at a cost to the taste, Was and still is a great whiskey.
Type: American Whisky An interesting and slightly quirky whiskey. Well worth a try.
If you love sweet drinks you will love this. Do not want to imagine what the hangover would be like. Mint Whiskey Sugar Bomb.
Much improved and cleaner taste than the previous incarnation. Highly recommend for a number of tasty cocktails or even by itself
Type: Bitters Type 2 Herbal/Fruit Very much a further step in the right direction, with a bit more polished herbal enhancement and a far better package that celebrates its return to its roots both literal and metaphorical.
If you can find this buy it, and drink it. Even mix it for a whole new level of cocktail pleasure.
While it gets a decent score for taste, the value is not there for the money ( for those of you who care, and not just collect for the sake of showing off to the equally shallow or reselling profiteers)
A damn manly yet gentlemanly bourbon.
Type: Barrel Proof Damn fine Bourbon and Favorite of the Elijah Barrel Proof releases so far!
Another Elijah Craig Barrel Proof Release. A bit lighter than some of the others but still good
Type: Barrel Proof Another release of a full and robust Barrel Proof Elijah Craig to enjoy and add to your whiskey archive!
Type: Barrel Proof Decent release and worth getting if you can find it.
Type: Barrel Proof Well done slightly more approachable off the shelf than some of the other releases and a good buy for the money.
Type: Barrel Proof Highly recommend this particular release as the pick of the litter for this year! Less oak and char notes and a touch sweeter.
Grab it if you can!
Type: Barrel Proof One of the drier expressions of the Elijah Craig Barrel Proof Series
Type: Barrel Proof Favorite release of this Elijah Craig Barrel Proof series in a few years!
Much better IMHO than a number of the releases especially lately.
Type: Barrel Proof A nice return to an old school bourbon style. This release is much closer to what bourbon used to be and it is nice to see Elijah Craig return to its roots
Type: Rye Gateway rye at best. Great for newbies of rye but too light in character to recommend to anyone else
Interesting , but somewhat , shall we say simpler, (not to use the dirty word-light) expression of an Elijah Craig bourbon. Buy to compare to their other expressions and maybe use to break the newbies in.
Normally I would not touch a premade bottled Egg Nog, but this one is excellent!
Type: Single Barrel Highly recommend this as a great bourbon and a great value for the money
While decent, this Vintage 2002 is very light in the taste and finish department. Not one of our favorite vintages.
Type: Single Barrel Drier and woodier than previous vintages, giving you a rich oakiness similar to a much older bourbon without the cost.
Type: Single Barrel, Vintage Much heavier in all departments than former releases. Could almost believe it was a Scotch…
Pay more, get less, but collectible I guess? If you want to collect them all or want to show off a limited availability bottle go ahead, otherwise pass on this one.
A stunning achievement in both whiskey distilling and aging. While Parker Beam did not live to see this whiskey bottled I am sure he would be proud of it.
Type: Bottled in Bond, Straight I’m pretty sure if Parker Beam was still alive he would drink this – it’s that good.
Delicious, complex and smooth everything you might want for a great price.
Type: Barrel Proof Decent if not spectacular. More of an investment than a drinking bottle for the low-life bottom feeders that engage in such a trade as it will no doubt be a limited edition and much sought-after bottle. Yes, I think a Heaven Hill aficionado would enjoy it quite a bit and it is worth trying if you can, but maybe not buying an entire bottle as it is pricey for what it is. Leave it to the speculators and shallow egotists and buy some of their more modestly priced releases for enjoyment.
Type: Small Batch Not only do you get the extra proof but a lot of subtle aging characteristics and aromas that would have been lost in the proofing down process! Worth the extra money for the extra proof and all the goodness that comes with it!
Type: Barrel Proof One of the best buys in bourbon right now. Yes, it is a relatively mass-produced whiskey, but it is a nicely done barrel-proof release of good bourbon to start with and the price/value ratio is a lot higher than a lot of newer craft whiskies that frankly are not as good – especially for the money.
