DESCRIPTION & TASTING PROFILE
Buy Elijah Craig Single Barrel 750ml and you’re getting whiskey drawn from one specific barrel rather than the dozens blended into Heaven Hill’s standard Small Batch release, meaning proof and flavor intensity can shift modestly from pick to pick even though the core age statement stays consistent.

Sensory Tasting Notes
The Nose
Dense caramel and dark fruit lead, with toasted oak, vanilla, and a faint leather note built up over 12 years in the barrel.
The Palate
Full-bodied with brown sugar, dried cherry, and cinnamon over a firm charred-oak base; noticeably more concentrated than the standard Small Batch given the longer age statement and single-barrel selection.
The Finish
Long and warm, closing on dark chocolate, oak tannin, and a lingering baking-spice note that holds well past the pour.
The Heritage
Heaven Hill introduced the Single Barrel expression to showcase what individual barrels from its Elijah Craig stock look like without blending smoothing out barrel-to-barrel variation, giving serious bourbon drinkers a way to compare specific picks the way whiskey retailers and private-selection buyers already do. Because each release is genuinely barrel-dependent, enthusiasts track individual barrel and warehouse numbers the way wine collectors track vintage variation, making this bottle a frequent subject of comparison tastings within the bourbon community.
