The Double Release
SpringHill releases two Elijah Craig barrel-proof picks
SpringHill Wine & Spirits in North Little Rock has added two new Elijah Craig Single Barrel selections to its 2026 store-pick lineup. Both carry the Elijah Craig Private Barrel designation, both are bottled at barrel proof, and each offers a different combination of age and strength. The shelf price is $81.99 per bottle for either selection.

What Separates Them
One year and 3.2 proof points apart
The cleanest comparison is on the labels. Store Pick #2 is the younger and lower-proof bottle at 9 years and 128 proof. Store Pick #3 adds one year of age and 3.2 proof points, reaching 10 years and 131.2 proof. Because these are single barrels, the bottles represent two individual barrel selections rather than two batches blended to match one another.

Two distinct chances to explore Elijah Craig at barrel proof
A double single-barrel release creates a natural side-by-side opportunity without pretending the numbers tell the whole story. SpringHill’s two selections are close enough in age and proof to invite comparison, yet each comes from its own barrel with its own serial number. For enthusiasts who enjoy exploring barrel variation, that is the real appeal.
