Private Barrel image
Elijah Craig Private Barrel
To sip Barrel Proof is to experience Bourbon in its purest form: uncut, straight from the barrel, and without chill filtering. Each bottle is hand labeled with its unique proof and batch number; but the nose, taste, and finish are pure Elijah Craig.

Part of the  Heaven Hill Distilleries family of brands.
Note: A very small quantity of whiskies came from this single barrel, so taste variability is higher than with larger production whiskies. Many times this is not a big deal (i.e. Blanton's), but sometimes it matters (i.e. Larceny Barrel Proof versions). If the specific barrel is not listed, ask your server or a store employee for more info.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Expect a mix of sweet caramel, vanilla, and toasted oak. Some may have hints of fruit, like apple or orange.
Palate: The palate often features rich vanilla and caramel, sometimes with butterscotch. Spices like cinnamon and black pepper can also be present.
Finish: The finish is usually long and layered, with flavors fading slowly and lingering as it cools.
Maker's Mark FAE-02 (2021 Limited Release)
The Maker's Mark Wood Finishing Series returns with our anticipated Fall edition. Following up on spring's FAE-01, this fourth limited release from the series is here after a full year of wood experimentation. The result is a rich, wonderfully oaky bourbon. FAE-02 honors our signature whisky with a focus on mouthfeel and big, round woody notes. There's enough spice to give it body and balance but the luscious texture is what really stands out. Bottles of this rare bourbon will number in the precious few, so be on the lookout.

Tasting Notes
Nose: Toasty, sweet oak with caramel and light brown sugar.
Palate: Texture forward with deep oak notes and spice.
Finish: Long, balanced, and consistent in texture and tone.
