Elijah Craig Barrel Proof Bourbon Batch B519

Love it more before I compared it to b520. Its great but not as refined. Invents. Little get a little more unsmoked tobacco but a nice lip tingle.

I just love the high proof and burn it comes with.

I’ve had this one on deck for a while and finally decided to crack her open. Let’s take a whiff and a sip! The nose has milk chocolate, sweet corn, baking spices, freshly baked bread, brown sugar and a hint of cut grass. Very Heaven Hill, and I like that! The palate is sweet, thick and oily with some sweet corn, baking spices, a hint of cut grass and oak. The finish is long with lingering sweet corn, confectioners sugar, baking spices with a slight nutty character and a smidge of cut grass with some tingling on the sides of the tongue. This might be one of my top Elijah Craig Barrel Proof batches. It reminds me a lot of classic Heaven Hill distillery notes, which I’m a huge fan of. This is a little lower proof than a lot of their batches, but I don’t care. It’s good.
