Larceny Barrel Proof (Batch B522), 61.9%

Price: 60 Issue: Fall 2022 Reviewer: David Fleming Category: Bourbon/Tennessee Whiskey


Fresh oak, chocolate brownies, cocoa powder, cinnamon, tiramisu, and taffy on the nose. Rich and full-bodied on the palate with such powerful heat that it definitely needs water or ice, but serves up notes of raisins, dried red fruits, chocolate, and cinnamon. Lots of brown sugar, chocolate, and spice on the finish. Well-textured overall and with lovely tempered sweetness—a big whiskey but one that carries its proof well.
