Elijah Craig Toasted Barrel Bourbon

Lots of cinnamon. Finishes with vanilla and sweet brown sugar. Reminds me of creamy coffee cake. I don’t find it as hot as others have noted. But there is some mild burn.

I'm not sure what to expect from this neck pour. I really enjoy the ECBPs, but those are offered at a much higher proof. ECTB coming in at 94 proof makes me question how this will be different from the EC Small Batch, which also comes in at 94 proof, is a lot easier to find, and can be had for a third of the price. Nose: caramel, brown sugar, very sweet, some cherry wax candy, vanilla frosting, green olives (where did that come from?) Palate: interesting. it's definitely different. some sweetness, tannins, oak, caramel, vanilla, hazelnut, Finish: short-medium, oak, some sweet, tea, rye spice This was just ok for me. I think I get more from it than the small batch, but at $60 this is not worth it for me; I'd much rather have easier to find spirits at the same price or cheaper. 73/100 - Sure I'll take some

(8.0) Solid bourbon, deep spice and earthy under and caramelized marshmallow
