Elijah Craig 15 year old Single Barrel Bourbon

Elijah Craig 15 Year Old Single Barrel – 54% ABV

For years, the spotlight at Heaven Hill has been firmly on the Elijah Craig Barrel Proof releases — and deservedly so, given their reputation for delivering some of the most compelling high-proof bourbons on the market. But quietly and consistently, the brand’s single barrel program has held its own, led by the long-standing 18 Year Old expression, a staple since the mid-1990s.

Now, that legacy expands with the introduction of a 15 Year Old Single Barrel — a younger sibling with a decidedly bolder personality.

Bottled at 54% ABV (compared to the 18 Year’s 45%), it delivers a richer, more intense profile — dialing up both structure and depth.

The proof itself is no accident. At 54%, it pays homage to May 4, 1964 — the date when the U.S. Congress formally recognized bourbon as a distinctive American product. A subtle historical nod, wrapped in a whiskey that leans into power without losing balance.

For fans of Elijah Craig, this is not just a new age statement — it’s a different gear altogether.
