Heaven Hill Distillery, Bardstown, Kentucky — a bottle of Elijah Craig Small Batch Bourbon paired with a specially designed Glencairn whiskey glass — the world's most recognized whiskey tasting glass — presenting Heaven Hill's most popular expression in the vessel that best allows its caramel, vanilla, and oak character to be fully appreciated.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Glencairn glass was designed specifically for whiskey. Its tapered tulip shape — wide bowl, narrowed mouth — concentrates the aromatics toward the nose while the wide base allows the spirit to open in the glass. Designed by Raymond Davidson and refined in collaboration with master blenders from the five largest whisky companies, it has become the universal standard for whiskey tasting at distilleries, competitions, and home bars worldwide. The reason professionals use it is the same reason it elevates the Elijah Craig Small Batch experience: the glass is doing work that a tumbler or rocks glass cannot do, focusing the caramel, vanilla, and oak aromatics that upper rick house aging produces into a concentrated aromatic experience before the first sip.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor those new to Elijah Craig, the Glencairn glass set provides the best possible introduction — the bourbon in the vessel that reveals the most about what's in the bottle. For existing Elijah Craig drinkers, the glass set is a straightforward upgrade to how they're already drinking it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eContents\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eElijah Craig Small Batch Bourbon\u003c\/strong\u003e (750ml) — 94 proof, Heaven Hill upper rick house aged\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eGlencairn Whiskey Glass\u003c\/strong\u003e — the world's most recognized whiskey tasting glass\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes — Elijah Craig Small Batch\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Caramel, vanilla, and toasted oak with lingering honey.
