Elijah Craig Toasted Rye Barrel 750ml

Elijah Craig Toasted Barrel Straight Rye Whiskey is a masterful evolution of Heaven Hill’s acclaimed rye, enhanced through a unique secondary finishing process in custom-toasted new oak barrels. This innovative step deepens the whiskey’s complexity, infusing warm layers of sweetness and spice while preserving the bold, peppery character that defines classic rye.

Crafted from a mash bill of 51% rye, 35% corn, and 14% malted barley, this small-batch rye combines Kentucky tradition with modern creativity. Bottled at 94 proof (47% ABV), it offers an exceptional balance of depth, structure, and approachability it is an elevated expression worthy of Elijah Craig’s legacy.
