Elijah Craig 11 year 2 month old Barrel Proof (Batch B524), 65.3%

Bubble gum, vanilla taffy, creamed corn, honeyed Cream of Wheat, and leather on the nose. The palate offers red berries, cinnamon, chocolate babka, and pepper spice. Overall, the texture is smooth and it holds its proof well as the flavors hum. On the finish, orange, aged oak, chicory, and a rush of hot cocoa, all reveal quality in depth and integration. This is a superb whiskey, big, flavorful, and complex.
