What proof is Elijah Craig Small Batch, and how is it different from Elijah Craig Barrel Proof?

No. Copper is used during distillation, but the bourbon is matured in Level 3 charred new oak barrels, which contribute caramel, vanilla, smoke, and spice notes. [Elijah Craig product page](https://elijahcraig.com/small-batch)
How old is the whiskey in Elijah Craig Small Batch?
The current bottle does not carry a fixed age statement.
