Elijah Craig Astor Exclusive 12 Year

Item # 29222 750mL

The first thing you notice is the surprising amount of fruit this 12-year-old is holding on to. Elijah Craig specializes in older Bourbon and after tasting several casks to select our barrel it's obvious that they are in the right business. We knew how much complexity a 12-year-old could bring, so we selected the one that brought everything to the table. Fruits, florals, caramels, and spice radiate from the glass, while all the flavors permeate the taste buds. In the world of American whiskey, this is the ideal.

Staff Pick Notes

We are very proud of our single barrel program here at Astor; the quality and variety of great spirits it has uncovered is second to none. This latest addition to the family, a fabulous 12-year-old single barrel bourbon made by the folks at Heaven Hills, is no exception. The main thing that strikes me about this particular barrel is the beautiful balance across the entire tasting experience. The nose: toffee, candied apple, subtle wood, and a delightful floral component. The palate: balanced, with a great soft and round texture. A touch of oak, wood, and toffee. The finish: Gentle and creamy, with lingering spiced caramel. Cheers! Stephen W.
