The complex aromas suggest red fruit, vanilla and allspice. The first sips open with oak, leading to hints of dried cherry and cranberry midpalate. That fruit note extends into the elongated, mouthwatering finish, backed by cinnamon and cayenne heat. (Best Buy) ... More details

#7 in the 2020 Top 20. Elijah Craig always impresses with value, but until now has been confined to bourbon. This foray into rye whiskey sticks close to Elijah Craig’s bourbon roots by using only the minimum-required 51% rye in its formulation; however, it does achieve a nice departure in flavor. Aromas include butterscotch, caramel-nut clusters, and peppery spice. The spice ramps up on the palate, carried forward by the full body, hearty proof, and mouth-coating texture, as cherry cola, baking chocolate, and darker fruits emerge. Priced a notch below comparable peers, this rye delivers powerful flavors that feel excitingly untamed, and will impress bourbon and rye lovers alike. - Winter 2020

Light golden amber color. Aromas and flavors of roasted apricot, cinnamon, pepper, vanilla, and cocoa nibs, tiramisu and nutella, and carrot cake with a round, vibrant, dry medium body and a warming, nuanced, long finish manifesting notes of brown sugar and vanilla, cherry syrup and orange zest, roasted coffee beans and tea leaves and cigar tobacco, and toasted almond cookies. A damn fine Whiskey regardless of category but that rye spice is present and unmistakable; benchmark and delicious.

Rated 92 by Ultimate Beverage Challenge
Invigorating brown spice and citrus notes give way to buttered pecan, cedar smoke, and graphite on the nose. Effortlessly smooth on the palate with warm, peppery tones and brown sugar that coats the mouth before finishing soft and fruity with a touch of clove. (Great Value) - 2023 ULTIMATE SPIRITS CHALLENGE
Winery
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.

Country: United States

For three hundred years now, the United States has been leading the New World in wine production, both in regards to quantity and quality. Wine is actually produced in all fifty states across the country, with California leading the way by an enormous margin. Indeed, as much as eighty-nine percent of all wines to come out of the United States are produced in California, where the fertile soils and sloping mountain sides, coupled with the long, hot summers provide ideal conditions for producing high quality, European style red, white and rosé wines. With over a million acres of the country under vine, the United States sits comfortably as the fourth largest wine producer in the world, where imported grape varietals from all over the Old World are processed using a successful blend of traditional and contemporary techniques.
