About this bottle
Elijah Craig Barrel Proof Batch B524 is an 11-year-old Kentucky straight bourbon bottled straight from the barrel at 130.6 proof, with no chill filtration or water added. Heaven Hill releases three of these batches a year, and each one carries its own proof and flavor profile depending on the barrels selected. This batch leans into dark caramel and toasted oak on the nose, with baking spice and dried fruit on the palate, closing on a long, warming finish that carries the full weight of the proof. It's built for bourbon drinkers who want to taste the barrel with nothing softening it.
How to drink Elijah Craig Barrel Proof B524
Add water gradually — even a teaspoon changes how the spice and oak show up at this proof. Once it's opened up, it also makes an outsized Old Fashioned if you don't mind a stronger pour.

Questions about this bottle
How should barrel-proof bourbon be served?
Start with a small splash of water or a large ice cube — barrel-proof bourbons are bottled well above standard strength and usually taste better opened up slightly rather than sipped completely neat.
What cocktails work with Elijah Craig Barrel Proof?
Its high proof makes it a strong choice for an Old Fashioned or a Manhattan, where it won't get lost next to vermouth or bitters.
What proof is Batch B524 bottled at?
130.6 proof (65.3% ABV), straight from the barrel with no water added.
Why does Elijah Craig Barrel Proof change with each batch?
Heaven Hill releases it three times a year, and since it's bottled straight from selected barrels without dilution, the proof and flavor shift slightly from batch to batch.
