Elijah Craig Rye Whiskey - 750ml Bottle

Absolutely delectable rye at an affordable price with the distinctive flavors Elijah Craig fans have come to expect, perhaps the best thing about it is that unlike most American ryes it doesn't begin its life in a large Indiana industrial plant but rather in the friendly confines of Bardstown where the sour mash wafts on every passing breeze.

my butt got burned by it to spicy

I was looking to find a great tasting whiskey as my go to that didn't break the bank. I truly love all the flavors and being extremely smooth! This is my new daily sipper!

This brand will be a go to for myself & friends when making an Old Fashion

Excellent flavor and viscosity. As a new rye drinker, I appreciate the corn sweetness -a perfect mellow addition to the rye spices.

On the nose: Bright, bubbly lovely citrus and floral rye just dances in the nose. It's a beautiful contrast to simple, musty bourbons that typically come in around this same proof. There's a subtle lemon peel and bubblegum mixture that does well to not overstimulate the nose. Where the nose is a bit light in complexity - the palate shines. The empty glass smells of honeysuckle, charcoal and a well seasoned grill grate. On the palate: Upfront this pour is bright and zesty. Lemon peel and cardamom tingle on the tongue. Light caramel and butterscotch fades into a nondescript bready medley. Hints of cinnamon and allspice sneak in on the back end. The linger is surprisingly long with vanilla dominating. Sugar cookie can be teased out as I nod my head in enjoyment. The mouthfeel is buttery as bakery delights get introduced in a whirlwind meeting of new friends. Late in the glass grilled street corn begins to take shape and my enjoyment grows. Complex contrasts of raspberry, sweet chili aioli, and level oak provide a really interesting neat sip. Though those notes together sound odd, they present more like a carousel - not quite mixing together, but their own distinct experiences to be pulled from at will. Drizzles of honey can be found amongst the stone fruit and Summer citrus medley. My last sip is like a Summer cookout; light effervescence of a can of Sprite mixes well with a slightly savory suggestion of barbecue chips. Mm.

I do enjoy Rittenhouse, Bulleit and Knob Creek Rye's. If you have a hankering for those, you'll love this one. I certainly do. Fantastic flavors.

I normally drink Michters rye, think I've found out I like Elijah Craig better. Very easy, flavorful sipper. I only drink my rye neat and this one is almost perfect. Not perfect but close.

It is worth the search to add this to your rye as a required element in your bar.

I have recommended this product to friends and family. This is a new staple at the house. Right beside the small batch Elijah Craig. The rye forward flavor hits all the right notes on the way down.

Incredibly smooth and approachable. Not a mixer, sip this beauty straight and enjoy!

Nice rye whiskey at a reasonable price point. I enjoyed it and would buy again.

The rye is not flavorful,and has a harsh taste!

This is an interesting rye, standard rye spices don't jump out at you. Instead the rye blends with the barrel leading to a wonderfully smooth unique finish. Must have on shelf.

I am a fan or ryes so when I saw Elijah Craig at my liquor store I thought I would try it! I must say I was very impressed! I like that it is not 100% rye (I don't care for them) this will be in my top 5 for sure! Elijah Craig rye a 5 out of 5! If you like ryes Elijah Craig rye is for you! Cheers 🍻

I'm very particular about my Rye and what I drink at the end of a hard week. This bottle definitely takes the cake for top 5 on my list. Always good and never misses! So smooth to sip.

Well Done! Heaven Hill did not let disappoint in the addition of this Rye to the Elijah Craig Family! It is very smooth, great flavor , not dry, and just enough spice that doesn't over power your palate.
