In this episode of Aussie Bourbon Lovers, we crack into the elusive and delicious Elijah Craig Toasted Barrel – a re-barreled, flash-charred masterpiece that’s harder to find in Australia than a good cork pop.
We talk about:


🔥 The difference between toasting and charring a barrel


🍫 Flavour notes of marshmallow, chocolate, and campfire goodness


🪵 Why rebarreling into toasted barrels gives a layered flavour profile


🥃 How this stacks up against classic Elijah Craig and Michter’s Toasted


🌏 And why this bottle is so hard to get outside the U.S.


If regular Elijah Craig is your gateway, the Toasted Barrel is your dessert.
