Elijah Craig announced the reintroduction of a 21-Year-Old Single Barrel Bourbon to its family of premium American whiskeys, available for a limited time. 

A rare, ultra-aged addition to the brand’s legendary Single Barrel lineup, the expression joins the widely acclaimed 15-Year-Old Single Barrel Bourbon and 18-Year-Old Single Barrel Bourbon. It will be exclusively available at the Heaven Hill Bourbon Experience starting on June 14 in celebration of National Bourbon Day, with additional highly limited distribution planned for later this year. 

Bottled at 94 proof, the latest Elijah Craig release comes packed in a custom wooden display case reflecting the craftsmanship of barrel charring that earned the brand’s namesake the moniker “Father of Bourbon.”

“Elijah Craig 21-Year-Old Single Barrel Bourbon is a sophisticated, more mature sibling to our vaunted Single Barrel collection and becomes our oldest age statement currently available,” Conor O’Driscoll, Master Distiller at Elijah Craig Bourbon, said in a news release. “Our fans have been waiting for a new 20-year-plus-aged release, and this won’t disappoint. Expect the signature warm spice that Elijah Craig is known for, with new layers that reveal the transformative power of extended maturation.”

Fans may take their place in line at the Heaven Hill Bourbon Experience as early as the night before the event, with wristband distribution planned ahead of doors opening at 11 a.m. and bottle sales starting at noon. O’Driscoll and Artisanal Distiller Jodie Filiatreau will be on-site for bottle signings, and fans can enjoy a complimentary Elijah Craig tasting journey and a barrel charring demonstration set to a backdrop of live music until 4 p.m.

Elijah Craig 21-Year-Old Single Barrel is available exclusively at the Heaven Hill Bourbon Experience for an MSRP of $299.99, while supplies last. The brand has also reserved 1,789 bottles – honoring the year Elijah Craig first made Bourbon – for sale in select markets ahead of the holiday season.

About Elijah Craig Bourbon

Known as “The Father of Bourbon,” Elijah Craig is credited with being the first distiller to age his wares in charred oak barrels to make Bourbon. The clear, unaged corn whiskey became transformed into a bold amber liquid with a distinctively smooth flavor that makes Bourbon what it is today. For more information, visit www.elijahcraig.com.
