Elijah Craig is one of the flagship brands produced by Heaven Hill, named after an 18th century pastor, often cited (although probably incorrectly) as the first man to distill bourbon in the US.
This is a (Pre Fire) 18 year old Elijah Craig and was matured in a single new charred oak barrel. It was distilled on May 12th 1989 and filled into barrel #2047.
This single barrel was filled at the old Heaven Hill distillery in Bardstown. Production has since moved to Bernheim in Louisville since the site this was distilled at tragically burned down in 1996.
