Elijah Craig, the 'Father of Bourbon,' pioneered aging whiskey in charred oak barrels, giving birth to the rich flavors of Bourbon. Elijah Craig Rye, the first extra-aged Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey in the lineup, celebrates his legacy. While similar to Small Batch Bourbon in distillation, the Rye version boasts a mashbill with 51% rye grain, adhering to legal requirements. This Straight Rye expertly balances rye's spice with corn's sweetness, a nod to Craig's innovation. Meticulously aged and selected, Elijah Craig Rye offers a perfect blend of flavor and smoothness.
