Elijah Craig Barrel Proof Bourbon Batch C920

Oak, chocolate, baking spices

Super dry for what EC normally puts out. I surprisingly enjoying this batch. It’s enjoyable to drink. You will taste lemon and dry fruits and some tobacco. Make sure you put it on ice.

Peppery, hot, sweet, cinnamon, oak. Should be noted, I paid $26 per bottle for 2 of these but listed at what MSRP is near me.

Blah blah blah...excellent value for the money; yada yada yada, wonderful expression of bourbon. Nose = cinnamon toast crunch, but at the risk of sounding jaded, I was hoping for a little bit more on this one. This comes up to the edge of too much oak presence. It tastes as if another year in the barrel would cross the line. But its still very good, especially with a touch of water which will extend the bottle lifespan for me. B520 is the winner this year. Coming back to this a few months later with 1/2 the bottle full and it sitting for 3 months, allowed for this to get much better. I can't really remember B520, so I wont score it over that one, but this is now a MUST BUY... moral of the story buy ECBP whenever (at this price), wherever (be safe), however (bitcoin or fiat) 5.0 - go out and buy all of the stock you can find. 4.0 - must buy at least one bottle before you die. 3.0 - solid, must try at a bar, or mooch from a friend. 2.0 - didn't like it, you may. 1.0 - you may have the palate of my dog, and he licks his own ass.

Awesome stuff. Found it at a great price too!

Brown sugar, maple, oak. Very nice
