Elijah Craig Barrel Proof Blind 2024 | Which one comes out on top?

[@wayneparr7571]

Just picked up the C924 and had a tough time telling the difference from last year's C923. Both great!

Yeah, I really like this C924. It's really good! Thanks for watching and commenting. I truly appreciate it! Cheers!

Thanks for this video, it was exactly what I was looking for! Great breakdowns of the differences between each bottle. If I was following along correctly for the best two, it sounds like the B524 is more oaky and spicy while the C924 is sweeter and a bit fruitier? Both good for different reasons?

Everyone's palates are different, but yes, that's how it was for me. I thought the B524 and the C924 were very similar. The B524 did have a little more oak and spice characteristic to it, which I do like, and the C924 was a little more on the darker fruit, brown sugar side. To be honest, I really like both, and on any given day I could choose either one over the other. Just depends on which notes I was wanting at the time. Thanks for commenting and for watching. I do appreciate it!

Just opened my first C924 was a bit underwhelmed. I loved the B524 - bought two cases of it! I didn’t care for A when it came out, but revisited a few weeks ago and really enjoyed it. Will blind all 3 in several weeks, once the C batch has some time with air on it.

@@brettheiner7125 I thought the C924 and B524 were very similar. I liked the palate of the B524 a little better than the C924, but I liked the nose and finish better on the C924. I normally side with the best palate, but since I was basing the blind off of all 3...the nose, palate and finish, that's why I went with the C924 to win the blind. Thanks for the comment and for watching. I appreciate it! Cheers!
