Elijah Craig Single Barrel- Private Barrel "KNB Bistro" Barrel Pick 8 year 750 ml
Experience a unique expression of Elijah Craig with the Elijah Craig Single Barrel – Private Barrel "KNB Bistro" Barrel Pick 8 Year 750ml. This limited-release Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey was selected exclusively for KNB Bistro / Keg N Bottle as part of Elijah Craig's renowned Private Barrel program, where individual retailers choose a single barrel that showcases its own distinct character.
Distilled by Heaven Hill Distillery in Bardstown, Kentucky, this bourbon was matured for approximately 8 years before being bottled at full barrel proof without chill filtration. As with all Elijah Craig Private Barrel selections, each barrel is unique, meaning proof and flavor profile vary from one selection to another. The KNB Bistro Barrel Pick is listed at 133.8 Proof (66.9% ABV), delivering an exceptionally rich and concentrated bourbon experience.
Expect bold aromas of caramel, vanilla, toasted oak, dark brown sugar, baking spices, and roasted nuts. The palate offers layers of rich toffee, caramelized sugars, cinnamon, dark chocolate, roasted oak, and charred spice before finishing long, warm, and full-bodied with lingering sweet oak and peppery spice. Best enjoyed neat or with a few drops of water to reveal additional complexity.
