Elijah Craig 18 Year 1978 Release — Barrel #125, distilled April 21, 1978. An extremely rare expression of Elijah Craig 18 Year from the original 1978 era, one of the oldest specific-date Elijah Craig single barrels available and predating the program's modern era by decades.
The April 21, 1978 distillation date places this barrel in the very earliest documented Elijah Craig production — before the modern single barrel commercial program that Heaven Hill launched in the mid-1980s. At 18 years from the 1978 distillation, the bottling date would be approximately 1996 — the same year as the Heaven Hill fire, making the production context historically significant.
