New from Heaven Hill Distillery, Elijah Craig Toasted Barrel expands on the growing Elijah Craig line by putting the regular small batch into a specially designed toasted and lightly charred barrel made by Independent Stave Company specifically for this expression. Then we bring out the Michter's Toasted Barrel to compare the two toasties.

Love seeing the different stave comparison. I can now visualize toasted so much better! Great review, kids! 🥃🥃

Please rewatch this video, Elijah Craig toasted and Michter’s toasted. This is a perfect video, what I originally subscribed for. You’re now trying to please everyone. You can’t. You’re the experts, just do what you do best. Love the chemistry. This is enjoyable to watch.

Great video. Love your comments about warmth/bite. I uncorked Jefferson's Ocean Aged at Sea Cask Strength. 112 proof, but had the warmth of a 90. Didn't blow me away, but very smooth.

Elijah Craig is my daily drinker, but I've been searching for this one since it dropped in 2020. Found it today in not one of the more upscale liquor stores in town (cash ONLY), but after a quick trip to the ATM I picked up the EC Toasted Barrel. Looking forward to cracking it open. Thanks for the reviews, kids.

@cobbler88 3 года назад

I'm having my first right now. I've only been at this for a little while, so my nose basically just still picks out vanilla, alcohol and brown sugar from pretty much everything. This one seems a little sweet up front, then gets a little oaky and dry for me. I wouldn't really say this is superior to regular EC Small Batch. In fact, I prefer SB, price aside. And since we're talking about the same proof and the $64 price tag this Toasted Barrel had (in Des Moines), I would have to draw a hackneyed - but often accurate - conclusion that it's good, but you can find something you'll enjoy more for half the price. We'll see what I think the next time I open it, likely when visiting my brother in late October.

I'm a CA native where you can virtually never find whiskey for "suggested retail". I was fortunate enough to take a road trip to 8 western states where I found an Elijah Craig Toasted Barrel for "suggested retail". It was actually readily available at that price. I unfortunately made the mistake of not uncorking it until I had returned to CA. I think it is PHENOMENAL!! However, here in CA I can't find it anywhere for less than $100.00

@kevinkelly9996 Год назад

I found a bottle at Total Wine & More in San Ramon for $51.99. I'm enjoying the juice right now. So good! Highly recommend. I wish I had enough to buy a bottle of the Larceny Barrel Proof (126.6 Proof).

@derickzellar6632 4 года назад

I low key hope they make single barrel versions of toasted barrel so I can get a hold of the used empties. Cleaning out a #3 or #4 char for making liquor cabinets is a pain in the ass.

@steelers6pak852 3 года назад

I have not had the Michter’s, but I have the Woodford DO and OF 1910 and the ECTB holds up just fine. I’ll take the ECTB over dropping $200 on the Michter’s any day.

@johnferron3709 4 года назад

wonder how this would go against WR double oak..

@CALTECH007 4 года назад

Had some WR dbl oak last night. I like the Elijah Craig regular small batch better at almost 1/2 the price. I just don't get all these high proof high cost offerings. The WR dbl oak is good but not worth the high cost ($60).

@txmike1945 4 года назад

The last third of your videos are most fun because Sara is just about drunk by that time! :) If you guys really think "neck pour" ( 11:45 ) is a valid thing, why not pour a full bottle into a large jug, swish it around a bit, then pour it back into the bottle? Or better yet open two identical bottles, do a "neck pour" on one and aerate the other, then check blindly to see if there is a difference?

@tgentilcoremd 4 года назад

...Seems complicated. How about this. If neck pours are a real thing, which I seriously doubt, before opening and pouring from any given bottle, invert it several times to promote adequate mixing prior. Just saying ...

@txmike1945 4 года назад

@@tgentilcoremd Yeah, I'm with you on this. I believe some tasters blame "neck pour" for the fact that their taste buds are not the same from day to day.

@debracohen5632 3 года назад

@@tgentilcoremd It's not that the juice in the neck is different than the juice in the rest of the bottle and requires mixing, it's that the bourbon hasn't been exposed to any air when you open a new bottle. Once you do a few pours, there is room for some air to get in the bottle and open the bourbon a bit.
