Another newer entry from Heaven Hill, the Elijah Craig Toasted Barrel takes a cue from the Woodford Double Oak by similarity finishing or using a second maturation in lightly charred and toasted virgin oak barrels.
From The Producer
"Twice barreled for added complexity, Toasted Barrel takes our award-winning Small Batch Bourbon to new heights. After it's fully matured, we finish this Bourbon in a second, custom toasted new oak barrel, where it’s left to develop even more sweet oak flavor."
750ml mlEvan's Tasting Note
Nose: Not bubble tea, but bubblegum and tea notes right off the hope. The evidence of the second barrel is in evidence right off the hop. Bananas, kirsch liqueur, Bubblicous bubble gum (the pink kind), kettle corn, a touch of Grand Marnier, and plenty of rickhouse notes as well.
Palate: Did somebody spike my tea with coffee? Dark chocolate and mocha notes as well as a cup of dark French Roast, burnt brisket ends, black forest cake, preserved cherries,
Finish: Sweet fruit and toasty oak with barrel char notes coming through at the end.
Comment: A fun spin on the always-good regular version of Elijah Craig.
Producer Tasting Note
Aroma: Lots of toasted oak with rich caramel.
Taste: Big, rich, and complex. Delightful spice and pepper notes fade to milk chocolate with just a hint of smoke.
