Elijah Craig Straight Bourbon Toasted Barrel Ryder Cup Limited Edition 8 Yr 750ml

Introducing our exclusive limited edition, a distinctive creation that begins with our fully-matured Elijah Craig Small Batch Bourbon. To craft this exceptional expression, we carefully finish it in new European Oak barrels. These barrels bear a special toast, evoking the rich flavors of the Lazio wine region surrounding Rome, where the 2023 Ryder Cup is set to take place at the esteemed Marco Simone Golf & Country Club from September 29th to October 1st. European oak, renowned for its remarkable ability to subtly and smoothly integrate flavors, gracefully balances the sweetness and spiciness of the Lazio-inspired toast profile with the unmatched character of our fully-matured Bourbon. This limited edition masterpiece unfolds with an enticing nose, featuring notes of caramel and cr?e br??. Upon sipping, vibrant fruit notes burst onto the palate, following initial impressions of warming baking spices. The finish is wonderfully moderate, with a captivating spice dominance. Guy Kinnings, Ryder Cup Director, remarks, 'Elijah Craig's award-winning Bourbon is poised to enhance the spectator experience in Rome, and their new limited edition bottle promises not only an incredible taste but also becomes a highly sought-after keepsake, commemorating the most prestigious team event in golf.' Each bottle of this exceptional release will be adorned with a neck label showcasing the iconic Ryder Cup trophy, crowned by a cork bearing a golden coin emblazoned with the Ryder Cup logo. The front label prominently features the 'Official Bourbon' designation and Ryder Cup logo. These bottles will be elegantly packaged in gift boxes, each recounting the captivating narrative of this unique offering. Availability nationwide is set for August, with allocations in place.
