  • In this video, we are taking a look at the Newest release from Heaven Hill Distillery their Elijah Craig Barrel Proof B524 and let me tell you about this one, this bad boy is...well you'll just have to watch and find out. The real question is, is B524 going to be another major player in 2024? Every year it's something different and the anticipation for the Elijah Craig Barrel Proof B524 hasn't been higher coming off of the C923 release from last year and the subpar release of the A124. Now the real question is, how has Elijah Craig redeemed themselves with the newest release of Elijah Craig Barrel Proof B524

    This year is flying by. We're at the B batch already.

  • @malmeyer
    @malmeyer 3 месяца назад +5

    Since it's under 12 years I'm sure I'll be able to pick this up. I always look forward to these. The C924 will probably be 13 yrs 8 months and I'll never see one. :) Nice review, looking forward to it. Cheers Scott!

    • @mybourbonjourney
      @mybourbonjourney  3 месяца назад +1

      I hope you're righ and wring, lol! If it was that, like you said, everyone will go crazy over it JUST because if the age. I'm convinced people like age more than actual flavor, lol

  • @Birds-EyeBourbon
    @Birds-EyeBourbon Месяц назад +1

    I liked the A124, as well. Sadly, I couldn’t procure the C923. Cheers, Scott 🥃🦉

    • @mybourbonjourney
      @mybourbonjourney  Месяц назад +1

      Cheers buddy, either way, these are all great bourbons. We just get a little picky over them, lol. Thanks for stopping by! 🥃

  • @shawnmahoney1892

    Surprising enough the local Indianapolis Costco has this and I didn't see the typical parade lining up to buy..............I purchased a couple for 64.99.

    • @mybourbonjourney
      @mybourbonjourney  2 месяца назад

      100% worth that all day long. It's still a great bourbon, we're all a bit critical of the ECBP. That price all day long is a buy!

  • @watchingu83
    @watchingu83 3 месяца назад +3

    Very underwhelmed with A124 after coming off a phenomenal C923 batch. Looking forward to trying B524 based on the early positive reviews!

    @davevogelsang6791 3 месяца назад +3

    Nice review. I buy all releases because all EC BP’s are good; some are just better than others. This one sounds good. 🥃

    • @mybourbonjourney
      @mybourbonjourney  3 месяца назад +1

      I couldn't agree with you more! It's what I tell everyone as well. For what you get at that aprox $75 it's still hard to beat. We've become very age statement dependent with the ECBP rather than focusing on the flavor and what you're really getting for the money. But hey, to each there own! Cheers buddy 🥃

    Thanks for the spot on review Scott. I went to pick up a 7 year Cedar Ridge Rye pick today and they had just gotten in this EC and the Larceny BP's. Of course I had to have one of each. I am enjoying the EC as we speak. Delicious! Cheers!

      @mybourbonjourney I think it was fabulous. The heavy sweet orange zest I was getting mixed with the oak was outstanding. Great long finish that kept changing as it went. A definite buy all day long. Thanks for your reviews and insights.

    Haven't seen this yet here in Calif. but will definitely pick it up if I can. I did get A124 and really like it a lot. It's somewhat off profile for ECBP but a delicious bourbon in its own right, IMO.

    • @mybourbonjourney

    • @mybourbonjourney
      @mybourbonjourney  3 месяца назад

      I was surprised myself! Typically, it's not something I get off of a fresh crack like this. It's what made me really think this one will open up nicely and be a really good bottle. Cheers, and thanks for watching 🥃

  • @christopherryan7654
    @christopherryan7654 3 месяца назад +1

    Hope to find it but seems like lots of stores that have their private barrel store picks don't carry the regular releases.

    I haven't tried any of them yet. I can get the A124 but heard it wasn't great. I'll be looking for this one.

    • @mybourbonjourney
      @mybourbonjourney  3 месяца назад

      I still think for $75 the A124 is still a buy and why I day that is it allows you to see how each batch progress's and what it is you truly like or appreciate about the releases. Thanks for watching and sharing, Cheers 🥃

    So after a couple of
    Months was there any improvement in taste? I just got one at retail but it seems from whiskey tube this was one that I should have passed on. This was one of the few positive reviews on it.

    • @mybourbonjourney
      @mybourbonjourney  14 часов назад

      Not much, to be honest! Still at retail, it's a great bourbon to have. Cheers buddy 🥃

  • @systemtrend3194
    @systemtrend3194 3 месяца назад +1

    The only way to truly know if these lower age statements are making a difference is to do a blind between a few new lower age statement batches B523-B524 (C923 at 13yrs doesn’t count obviously) and a few of the 12 year A121-A123 batches.

    • @mybourbonjourney
      @mybourbonjourney  3 месяца назад

      It's always a nice way to get to the bottom of it. This feels like a nice bottle, and I hope it continues to open up. Cheers buddy 🥃

    Never understood why people get so excited about a few proof points higher and they complain about EC18 being watered down. Theres a reason they proof it down. If you wanna obsess about stats this is a younger ECBP. Point is, palate/profile is everything and this sounds like a tasty batch though. Thanks for the review.
