Elijah Craig, Straight Rye Whiskey 94 Proof, NV
is backordered and will ship as soon as it is back in stock.
Elijah Craig, best known for its rich and well-aged bourbons, brings the same craftsmanship to its Straight Rye Whiskey. Bottled at 94 proof, this Kentucky rye follows a high-corn mash bill (51% rye, 35% corn, 14% malted barley), resulting in a whiskey that balances rye’s signature spice with the smooth sweetness of bourbon influence.
Aromas of toasted oak, caramel, and baking spices lead into a palate of dark cherry, cinnamon, and black pepper, all wrapped in a rich, slightly nutty texture. The finish is long and warming, with hints of vanilla, leather, and a lingering rye spice. Compared to more aggressive, high-rye mash bills, Elijah Craig Rye leans into approachability, making it a great sipping whiskey while still holding its own in cocktails.
Ideal for an Old Fashioned or Manhattan, this rye is also excellent neat or with a splash of water to open up its depth. A refined yet accessible take on Kentucky rye whiskey.
