Hudson Whiskey Bright Lights, Big Bourbon
Never one to shy away from the spotlight, Bright Lights, Big Bourbon is a bold, grain-forward, no-holds-barred straight bourbon whiskey. Distilled from New York corn and aged in new charred American oak barrels, with notes of rich vanilla and lightly salted caramel on the finish, it shines brighter than the rest.

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.
|
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.
