Elijah Craig Barrel Proof Bourbon

Wow. Just had a pour at Doe's Eat Place and I gotta get a bottle of this!The first thing you notice is the deep burnt Amber color. The nose is a rush of rich vanilla, caramel sweetness and oak char. Considering the high proof there is very little alcohol on the nose. The mouth feel is not as thick as I had hoped, although it's slightly viscous and pleasing. The pallet starts sweet and oaky with vanilla and dark chocolate. The medium finish is hot and spicy. (That's where 137 proof stands up!). Love this bourbon. It's easy see why the 12 year is so good, coming out of barrels like this. Acquistapace's $65
