The Elijah Craig PGA Championship 2026 Commemorative Edition Small Batch Bourbon bottles at 108 proof from a small batch of barrels pulled from Heaven Hill Distillery’s N and S rickhouses in Bardstown, Kentucky — the proof matching the 108th edition of the championship. It is the latest release in a partnership that positions Elijah Craig as the Official Bourbon of the PGA of America, the Ryder Cup, and the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship, and it arrives at $36.99 in limited quantities at retailers nationwide.
What the Elijah Craig PGA Championship 2026 Edition Delivers
The Elijah Craig PGA Championship 2026 edition opens with aromas of vanilla, clove, cinnamon, and citrus — the signature warm spice profile that Small Batch drinkers already know, elevated by the higher proof. On the palate, layered notes of butterscotch, ripe berries, and baking spices build toward a rich, warm finish marked by lingering sweetness and complex spice. The premium bourbon category has been delivering standout limited releases all year, and the Elijah Craig PGA Championship 2026 edition earns its place by doing something specific — taking a proven mash bill and letting the proof tell the story of the occasion rather than reinventing the liquid.
The Bottle Design Behind the Elijah Craig PGA Championship 2026 Edition
The Elijah Craig PGA Championship 2026 bottle carries distinctive labeling that showcases the brand’s “Official Bourbon” designation alongside the 2026 PGA Championship logo. The finishing detail is the gold coin cork bearing Aronimink Golf Club’s official logo — the kind of design decision that turns a bottle from a purchase into a keepsake. The championship returns to Aronimink May 14 through 17, and the commemorative edition is designed to work both as an on-course pour and a shelf piece that marks the moment.
Elijah Craig’s golf footprint now spans the PGA Championship, the Ryder Cup, the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship, and the PGA National Club Championship, with PGA TOUR pros Robert MacIntyre and J.T. Poston representing the brand on tour. The Elijah Craig PGA Championship 2026 release lands at a moment when the brand is running hot — its 2025 Barrel Proof Rye was named Whisky Advocate’s Whiskey of the Year, and the broader Elijah Craig family continues to expand with Small Batch, Toasted Barrel, Barrel Proof, and Single Barrel expressions. At $36.99, the commemorative edition undercuts most limited releases in the category while delivering cask-strength intensity. More information at elijahcraig.com.
