Elijah Craig Barrel Proof Bourbon, Batch C925 is bottled uncut and non-chill filtered straight from the barrel at 129 proof (64.5% ABV), the strongest release in the Barrel Proof line for 2025. Aged 9 years and 1 month, it's made from Heaven Hill's classic bourbon mash bill of 78% corn, 10% rye, and 12% malted barley.

A Decade of Barrel Proof Bourbon

Since debuting in 2013, Elijah Craig Barrel Proof has become one of American whiskey's most sought-after annual releases, bottled uncut three times a year directly from the barrel with nothing added and nothing taken away. Batch C925 is the third and final 2025 release, and the boldest of the year at a full 129 proof.

Tasting Notes

• Nose: charred oak and Tootsie Roll, giving way to dark toffee and flamed orange peel.
• Palate: sticky vanilla bean, black pepper, and dark raisins, evolving into pralines and cherry cordial.
• Finish: rich and mouth-coating, with jammy fruit and tannic barrel char.

How to Enjoy It

Sip it neat to experience its full barrel strength, or add a few drops of water to open up the vanilla and dark fruit notes further. Its intensity also makes it a standout base for a bold Old Fashioned.
