Elijah Craig Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey
In stock
The first extra-aged Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey to join Elijah Craig’s award-winning family of Bourbons. A unique combination of spicy rye grains and sweet corn, coupled with a steadfast attention to detail, give Elijah Craig Straight Rye the perfect balance of flavor and smoothness.
Elijah Craig was a larger-than-life character in Kentucky in the late 1700s. He was a preacher, founded a school and owned several businesses. In 1789 he founded his distillery and is credited as the first to char oak barrels to make Bourbon. Over 200 years later, we honor his innovative spirit with this Rye Whiskey.
