Arkansas Barrel Heads (ABH)<\/strong> has revealed details for its upcoming Elijah Craig Toasted Barrel Proof<\/em> single barrel \u2014 and it\u2019s already shaping up to be one of the club\u2019s most anticipated releases of the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to ABH founder Abe Wyly<\/strong>, the barrel clocks in at a bold 132 proof<\/strong>, aged 10.5 years<\/strong>, with 140 bottles<\/strong> available exclusively to club members. Priced at $90.49 before tax<\/strong>, the selection was made possible through a collaboration with Purspirit Liquor<\/strong> and features custom sticker art designed by Steve Crowe<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Monster of a Barrel<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Wyly described the whiskey as \u201cElijah Craig Barrel Proof turned up to eleven.\u201d<\/em> The tasting notes promise a classic Elijah Craig profile elevated by the toasted finish: caramel, vanilla, and marshmallow cream<\/strong> dominate the nose, while the palate delivers a rich, bold, and balanced<\/strong> experience with a lingering finish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cThe nose is flat-out unreal\u2014one of the best I\u2019ve ever experienced,\u201d Wyly said. \u201cThis is the kind of pour you don\u2019t just drink\u2026 you remember.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The Elijah Craig Toasted Barrel Proof will be distributed through the club\u2019s Central Arkansas network once bottles arrive, ensuring members can pick up locally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
