Elijah Craig is a bourbon producer based in Kentucky, one of the United States' primary whiskey-producing regions. The distillery has historical roots in Kentucky bourbon production, and today produces bourbon whiskey under the Elijah Craig name.

Kentucky bourbon production is defined by specific legal requirements: whiskey must be aged in new charred oak barrels and meet strict production standards to carry the bourbon designation. The state's limestone-filtered water and climate create conditions that influence spirit maturation and flavor development. Bourbon from this region typically exhibits characteristics ranging from vanilla and caramel notes derived from new barrel aging to deeper oak and spice profiles depending on age and production methods.

The current Elijah Craig range includes Small Batch Bourbon, a standard expression that represents the producer's core offering in the bourbon category.
