132 Proof · 8 Years
Elijah Craig Toasted Barrel Proof
ABH pick No. 1—and the beginning of our movie-theme tradition.
The first Arkansas Barrel Heads private pick was an 8-year-old Elijah Craig Toasted Barrel Proof bottled at a full 132 proof.
This is where the ABH private-pick story began: an 8-year-old Elijah Craig Toasted Barrel Proof at 66.0% ABV. At 132 proof, it was a bold first barrel and a fitting way to set the standard for everything that followed.
The sticker launched another ABH tradition. Every pick gets its own movie theme, and this first release paid tribute to Cheech & Chong—reimagined with barrel-headed characters, an Arkansas ride, and a mischievous raccoon along for the trip.
