Elijah Craig 12 Year Barrel Proof Bourbon (Batch B516) stands as a celebrated release from Heaven Hill Distillery, honoring the legacy of Reverend Elijah Craig, the man many credit with pioneering the use of charred oak barrels in bourbon aging. Introduced as part of Elijah Craig’s limited Barrel Proof series, Batch B516 was bottled at a striking 139.4 proof, making it one of the most sought-after editions among enthusiasts. Released in 2016, this batch is notable for its bold, undiluted presentation, reflecting the whiskey’s natural strength straight from the barrel after twelve years of maturation. The bottle’s distinctive broad-shouldered design and handwritten label details underline its collectible appeal, while the hangtag provides batch-specific information prized by aficionados. Batch B516 continues to be a favorite among collectors drawn to both Elijah Craig’s storied past and the rarity of high-proof, age-stated bourbons.
