Color: nice amber color with solid legs. Nose: fruity scent to it. But it is a very hard to place fruit. Like deep and dark scent. Smells like something that you would go to on a cold winter night. Taste: warm spices on the back of the tongue. It’s the first thing I notice. Some sweetness on the front, but it quickly turns to the warm spices. Very little burn even though it is a high proof. Finish?: long warm finish. Water?: no water needed.

Larceny Barrel Proof Bourbon Batch A124
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed April 21, 2024 (edited April 27, 2024)Color: nice dark amber with solid legs. Nose: I get a primary leather note I usually don’t love, but not seeing that on any of the notes I’m reading. I’m wondering if that’s what I smell when other people say nutty. I do get a fruity scent also as a 1B. Taste: super rich and heavy. I taste a thick honey. I also taste the fruit. It tastes heavy but very good. Very little burn. Finish?: the finish is pretty long. I can just feel the sweetness roll down my throat. Water?: no need this is too good without it. -
Color: warm amber color there are legs but you have to try pretty hard to get them. Nose: it starts like a sweet vanilla on first sniff. I get oak Taste: it drinks super light. Sweet up front. So much so that it almost tastes cool when you drink it even at room temp. There is a secondary taste that covers the middle and end that is a light spice. It honestly gets better the more you drink. Finish?: the finish is pretty quick. All tastes go way within like 10 secs. Water?: Definitely not needed for this one.

3 out of 5 because it is a solid price for a cask strength. Color: Warm amber color. Legs take quite awhile to form, but when they eventually do they are large and very slow. Nose: very unique smell. This one will burn your nose. It must be the malt I’m smelling. It isn’t familiar. Taste: I get a caramel and warmth on the front. Some hug. It turns into that leather taste that isn’t my favorite bourbon note. Some spice towards the end. Finish?: pretty long finish with some spice that lingers. Water?: an ice ball helped tone down the leather. Maybe it is just the chill of it. Still primarily leather and a spice finish to me. Got better once it got watered down.
