Elijah Craig Barrel Proof Batch C925 is a full-strength, uncut and unfiltered Kentucky straight bourbon from Heaven Hill Distillery, representing the third and final Barrel Proof release of 2025. Bottled at 129 proof (64.5% ABV) and aged approximately 9 years and 1 month, this expression showcases the classic balance of oak, sweetness, and spice that defines the Barrel Proof series — but with a slightly younger age statement than many previous releases. It delivers bold, intense flavors derived from deep char oak maturation and the brand’s traditional mash bill, making it a collectible and powerful pour for bourbon enthusiasts.

Nose:  Batch C925 opens with rich, warm aromas of caramelized sugar, toasted oak and vanilla bean, layered with hints of dark fruit and baking spices that give way to subtle brown sugar and toffee highlights, all lifted by a caress of char and spice.

Palate:  Bold and full-bodied, delivering waves of rich toffee, brown sugar and dark chocolate backed by a baking spice character — think cinnamon and nutmeg — plus roasted nuts and dried fruit balanced against firm oak and warm, peppery heat.

Finish:  Long, warming and layered, with lingering notes of oak spice, caramelized sugar and a persistent peppered warmth that slowly recedes, leaving a lasting impression of depth and complexity.
