In this episode of Aussie Bourbon Lovers, we pour something truly special: the Elijah Craig 18 Year Single Barrel – a bottle Dave thought might be a unicorn. Turns out, it kinda is.

We discuss:

🥃 The allure and frustration of single barrel bourbons

📦 How this one was bottled while we were likely in Kentucky

🥜 Nutty notes on the nose, from smoked almonds to Brazil nuts

🔍 Why Heaven Hill proofs down an 18-year single barrel to 90 proof

A thoughtful pour with rich stories, rare age, and just enough barrel mystery.
