Elijah Craig Barrel Proof bourbons exemplify the pinnacle of bourbon craftsmanship, presented straight from the barrel, retaining the genuine flavors that evolve during aging.

Heaven Hill, established in 1935 in Bardstown, Kentucky, is a significant, family-run distillery in the U.S., named after William Heavenhill. Despite a devastating fire in 1996, the distillery persevered, continuing whiskey production at other sites until its new facility in Louisville was ready. Among its renowned brands, Elijah Craig holds a distinct place, named after the preacher associated with bourbon's creation, known for its excellence and pioneering spirit.

The Barrel Proof series, launched in 2013, quickly captivated bourbon enthusiasts with its strength, complexity, and batch-to-batch variety, providing a distinctive tasting journey. These thrice-yearly releases are identified by a unique code, indicating the batch sequence and release timing.

Batch #A124 exemplifies Heaven Hill's commitment to bourbon artistry, showcasing over a decade of aging and the distillery's storied past.
