Heaven Hill Distillery kicks off its 2024 Elijah Craig Barrel Proof bourbon whiskey program with ECBP A124.
All releases in this series follow a standard naming system. The “A” in the name stands for the first batch in an annual A, B, C line. The “1” denotes the release month, January, while the 24 represents the current year.
Elijah Craig Barrel Proof A124 shows an age statement of 10 years and 9 months, representing the youngest barrel in the batch. It is non-chill-filtered and uncut, and bottled at 119 proof.
The suggested retail price is $74.99 per 750-ml. bottle.
Future releases of in this annual line (now in its twelfth year) are expected in May and September of this year.
Starting with last year’s batches, Elijah Craig Barrel Proof will now be barreled in small batches with varying age statements. Each batch will have a unique flavor profile and proof, as in the past, but now also a unique age statement that details aging down to the month. This expanded statement has transitioned from the side of the bottle to the front label. All other qualities remain the same.
