Barrel #75 joins multiple other Prefire 23-year expressions in the current Wooden Cork collection forming the most comprehensive Elijah Craig Prefire vertical available from any single specialty retailer.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe November 7, 1996 Heaven Hill fire destroyed the original Bardstown still house and over 90,000 barrels — the largest whiskey disaster in American history. All production from the original facility is a finite, closed set that can never be replenished. Elijah Craig 23 Year Prefire expressions are distilled from the pre-fire era and aged 23 years, placing their distillation date in the early 1970s — spirit that has been aging since before the modern bourbon revival began.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eDistillery:\u003c\/strong\u003e Heaven Hill, Bardstown, Kentucky (original pre-fire facility)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, Single Barrel\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAge:\u003c\/strong\u003e 23 years\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eBarrel:\u003c\/strong\u003e #75\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEra:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pre-fire (before November 7, 1996)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eBrowse all \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/rare\"\u003erare spirits at Wooden Cork\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch4\u003eWhat Elijah Craig 23 Year Prefire barrels are in the Wooden Cork collection?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eMultiple numbered barrels across different distillation dates — the current collection includes some of the most comprehensive Prefire 23-year single barrel documentation available from any specialty retailer.
