Rare Breed is more consistent but the Elijah Craig is better if you get a good cask behind it.

Maybe this is a stupid question, but how would I go about getting one from a good cask? Were there good and bad years of production?

Sorry, I'm lost here.
 
You don't know. Being a single barrel means that there are about 250-275 bottles per barrel sometimes less so a number of barrels are bottled with some just being better then others IMO.

Ditto.
I have been lucky with the EC. Have only had good batches but I know some who have not been. I usually take my chances with EC.

I love WTRB however I've never seen/heard of Elijah Craig 18. I have a new Bourbon to find now.
