For the eleventh yr in a row, Elijah Craig Barrel Proof has a brand new launch within the collection. The second 2023 expression is aged for 11 years 5 months and bottled at 124.2 proof. The expression is made out of the distillery’s commonplace bourbon mashbill of 78% corn, 12% malted barley and 10% rye.
The “B” within the title of every whiskey stands for the second launch within the collection of 2023, whereas the “523” stands for Could (the fifth month) 2023. The third batch of those barrel-proof bourbons might be obtainable in September.
GSN’s Remarks: Fruity, nutty and barely spicy nostril. Black cherry, walnut bread, blackberry preserves lead the tasting, with the well-known spine of the EC mashbill. This launch has all of the hallmarks of prior releases, with maybe some extra richness. Remarkably clean and straightforward going regardless of the over 62% ABV. Be happy so as to add greater than a splash of department water to open this one up. It received’t lose any of its character. These common releases are an actual deal with, as you’ll be able to see the consequences of growing old, climate and barrel on the distillate throughout the years. GSN Score: A
