Batch C923
13 Years 7 Months Old (Oldest Ever Barrel Proof Batch)
133 Proof / 66.5% ABV
Breaking Bourbon's Whiskey Of The Year 2023
Released for the first time in the March 2013, each batch is a an uncut, unfiltered selection of Elijah Craig 12 Year. Each batch will vary both in flavour and in proof as is the nature of such releases.
The "code" for the batches is as follows: The first letter of each batch indicates the order of the release for that year beginning with the letter "A" for the first batch, "B" for the second, and so on. Next is a number which reflects the month of the release, so "1" for January for example. The third and fourth digits reflect the year of the release. This batch number is printed on the front of each bottle along with the proof.
Specific Batch Reviews:
"Elijah Craig Barrel Proof Batch C923 could be the brand’s best batch yet ... If there ever was a bourbon that was created to prove a point, Elijah Craig Barrel Proof Batch C923 would be it. That’s not to say there hasn’t been amazing batches of 12 year old Elijah Craig Barrel Proof bourbon in the past, but removing the age restriction in crafting Elijah Craig Barrel Proof in 2023, is to all of our benefit. Simply put: Elijah Craig Barrel Proof Batch C923 is an amazing bourbon." - Eric Hasman, Breaking Bourbon
"I’ll go ahead and say it so you can stop reading this review if you’re looking at this bottle in a liquor store right now – just buy it. This is a return to greatness for the Elijah Craig brand and one that I would encourage anyone to get their hands on. For those of you who don’t live near the Heaven Hill gift shop to get their cool releases or who aren’t connected enough to get a Parker’s Heritage release, this should be your holy grail." - Mike & Mike, The Bourbon Culture
"Frankly, this is among the best ECBP batches I’ve ever experienced, and this is the highest rating I’ve ever given to one in years of reviewing these batches." - Jim Vorel, Paste Magazine
"The nose on this goes for days ... bitter chocolate, clover honey, oak, mincemeat pie, lavender, dried roses, chamomile, leather jacket and cooked apples. It's warm from front to back to down the hatch, but it drinks nowhere near its 133 proof." - Steve Coomes, Bourbon Banter
"Lovely and rich, powerful and layered, possibly the best Elijah Craig Barrel Proof ever." - Whiskey Raiders
