Elijah Craig Barrel Proof Bourbon Batch C918

Has a big yet smooth punch. So many flavors from start to finish. This is a must try for the Whiskey drinker like myself. Goes great with a cigar

Oak, charcoal, burnt brown sugar, chocolate

Nose: vanilla and Carmel red apples not as much oak as normal bourbons Taste: Carmel and spice dominate. Some slight maple and honey. Some more wood than the nose with vanilla. Easy round finish. Excellent beginner bourbon or whiskey in general

Neat. Lovely nose. Cinnamon and sugar mostly but a hint of floral behind it. High proof hides itself on the nose. Nice creamy texture where the cinnamon and spice rocks the tongue immediately. Get some chocolate flavors initially but the high proof sweeps through and mutes everything for a bit. After taste is fantastic. Lots of vanilla, almost a pie crust taste to it. Big fan. I’ll add water next taste. I feel like the high proof muted quite a bit.

Tasted this head to head verses B918. Not nearly the same quality. This one has quite a bit more burn. But overall still a quality whiskey well worth the price.
