Manage episode 481380866 series 3579480
In this episode of Aussie Bourbon Lovers, we pour something truly special: the Elijah Craig 18 Year Single Barrel β a bottle Dave thought might be a unicorn. Turns out, it kinda is.
We discuss:
π₯ The allure and frustration of single barrel bourbons
π¦ How this one was bottled while we were likely in Kentucky
π₯ Nutty notes on the nose, from smoked almonds to Brazil nuts
π Why Heaven Hill proofs down an 18-year single barrel to 90 proof
A thoughtful pour with rich stories, rare age, and just enough barrel mystery.
