House Review
Nose:
Bold brown sugar, tobacco, light fruit notes and rich clove. Sweet, but plenty of oak on the nose.
Taste:
Honey, toffee, brown butter. Lovely dessert notes throughout. Pleasant oak structure, toffee, a bit of pepper. Light cola, a hint of cherry.
Finish:
Long finish. Bold, powerful, complex. Lots to dig through in terms of complexity, but the oak is poised nicely.
Overall:
Markedly improved over the first batch, Elijah Craig Barrel Proof Batch 2 is loaded with rich flavor and plenty of notes to keep bourbon drinkers engaged.
