Remarkable dram from the birthplace of Bourbon. 

Not far away from Louisville, KY, there’s a small town that’s known as the capital of Bourbon: Bardstown. Right after the unholy period of Prohibition, two brothers decided it was the perfect time to make Whiskey. In just a few decades, they made the American dream come true and turned their business into the largest family-owned distillery. Heaven Hill Distillery is still owned by the Shapira family, and in 1986, they came up with a super-premium brand of Bourbon and named it after Reverend Elijah Craig, who allegedly invented “true Kentucky Bourbon”.

Elijah Craig Single Barrel 18YO received three double gold medals, two gold medals, and the title of the best small batch Bourbon of 2017. Master Distiller Parker Beam made sure this opulent Bourb’ starts with an aromatic bang that builds up to a fantastic palate and a memorable finish. Sourced from one single barrel, Elijah Craig 18 is a unique Spirit made for aficionados by aficionados. We drink it neat, and so should you.

Speaking of breeding winner horses, two of Pinhook’s co-founders have horseracing in their DNA. Jamie Hill and Mike McMahon continue the tradition of their families as third-generation horsemen, owning a bloodstock agency and a thoroughbred racing company. Applying that knowledge to Whiskey just made sense.
Bourbon only needs to be placed in a new oak container for a few seconds to be called Bourbon. Fresh from the still and unaged Bourbon is called a White Dog. Recently, many of the larger distillers have started packaging this harsh, clear grain spirit for sale.
In 1996, more than 90,000 barrels, and one of their production buildings were destroyed in a fire. That's almost 24 million bottles-worth of premium American Whiskey. Rivers of flaming spirit were flowing in and around the distillery.
Whisky or Whiskey? The spelling differs geographically. In Scotland, Japan, and some other parts of the world, distilleries usually spell it Whisky; in Ireland and the USA, they spell it Whiskey.
Bourbon matures quicker than Scotch due to higher temperatures in American warehouses.

Pinhooking means purchasing and rearing a foal based on its pedigree and either selling it or turning it into a champ racing horse. The same idea is behind Pinhook Bourbon: they source young Whiskey to mature and blend it into a blue-ribbon sipping Bourbon.
