Tastes

Light and sweet. This was the definitive single-barrel bourbon for years. I've had great bottles and not so great bottles. Sometimes a 5 sometimes a 2. Consistency has been enough of an issue for me that I've stopped buying it.

In my opinion, the best of the high-proof bourbon. It's original vintage was better, but the 6-year is still solid!

Love this bourbon. I would say the tasting notes are accurate. This will be the only Elijah Craig product I buy now that the 12 year is out of production.

One of my favorite spirits ever. A nearly perfect sipping bourbon. Haven't tried the new version of the blend without the 12 year designation, and I am skeptical that it will be the same quality.

Great bourbon for all occasions as long as you like a sweet bourbon. Both easy and satisfying to drink, but will not thrill fans of spicy or smoky whiskeys.
