| Description: | History,. A 21 year old single barrel release from Elijah Craig. The barrel used was hand-selected by father and son master distillers Parker and Craig Beam. It's rare to see a bourbon bottled at this age, especially a single barrel offering. Described as the perfect age for a sipping bourbon, the 21 years in aging for Elijah Craig 21 Year Old Single Barrel Bourbon has certainly produced an outstanding product. This remarkable bourbon is packed full of flavor and lacks the extra woody tones you may expect from over 20 years in the barrel. Instead you receive a perfect balance of oak with a subtle, smooth burn. If you appreciate a truly complex, mature bourbon, with a full, thick and syrupy presence, this is one you must add to your collection. Tasting Notes,. Nose: Taking a long deep breath pulls out a luscious smell of raisins and dried fruit. Subtle hints of allspice dance in the background but this bourbon knows what its doing. Palate: On first sip you get a long oaky palate upfront. Not as sweet as the nose would lead you to believe, but you definitely pick up light hints of dandelion, aged tobacco, and wood. It just lingers in your mouth for so long that you sit there savoring each sip. Again, adding a few drops totally changes that flavor profile. Youre treated to a flavor of spicy cinnamon, peaches, cherries, light honey & vanilla. And the best part is that palate flavor lasted just as long upfront. Finish Ec 21 hangs around on your taste buds for dear life as this finish just lasts and lasts and lasts. Just when you thought its done, it rears right back at you with a lingering woody taste still, but added to it is subtle hints of allspice and nut. |
