Product Description

Elijah Craig 20 Year Old Single Barrel Bourbon: Extended Oak Maturation from One Barrel

Elijah Craig 20 Year Old Single Barrel Bourbon is an exceptionally mature Kentucky bourbon selected from an individual barrel. The 20-year age statement places it firmly in the category of older, oak-driven American whiskey intended for deliberate tasting and collecting. Explore more aged American whiskey in our Bourbon collection.

Because this is a single-barrel release, the precise balance of fruit, sweetness, spice and oak can differ from bottle to bottle. The description therefore avoids assigning unsupported tasting notes to every barrel and focuses on the verified age and single-barrel format.

Tasting Notes

Expect mature oak to be prominent, potentially joined by caramel, vanilla, leather, tobacco, dried fruit and baking spice. Pour a small amount and let it rest before tasting. Older bourbon can change substantially with air and a few drops of water, so add dilution gradually.

Food Pairings

Pair with aged cheddar, roasted nuts, dark chocolate, smoked beef, dried fruit or a restrained cigar-style dessert pairing where appropriate. Avoid excessively sweet food that may make the mature oak feel more drying.

Serving Suggestions

Serve neat in a tulip-shaped tasting glass. Add water only a few drops at a time; use ice sparingly because prolonged chilling can mute the aroma of an older single-barrel bourbon.
