Larceny Barrel Proof Bourbon Batch B520
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed April 12, 2024 (edited April 21, 2024)The first bottle i purchased was the C921. The B520 is Strong, sweet and very smooth. Smoke, spices, caramel, leather, all dance nicely. Packs a spicy punch at the end with a long finish. The B521 is a touch sweeter than the C921 which has a touch more smoke. Both excellent. -
Larceny Barrel Proof Bourbon Batch C921
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed April 12, 2024 (edited April 21, 2024)Strong, smoky and smooth. Smoke, spices, caramel, leather, all dance nicely. I was tentative to try it straight but was pleasantly surprised how sweet, complex and smooth it is. Packs a spicy punch at the end with a long finish. The B520 is a touch sweeter than the C921. Both excellent. I Will be enjoying it on the rocks going forward, but for now, a great sipper. -
George Dickel 15 Year Tennessee Single Barrel
Tennessee Whiskey — Tennessee, USA
Reviewed April 6, 2024 (edited April 10, 2024)Cherry and more cherry! Cinnamon and smoke too. A long, sticky, smooth smoky finish. A touch medicinal though. More of a dessert dram than an everyday sipper. Make sure you get the higher proof batch at 104+ so the spice and sweetness is balanced. For a 15+ yo whiskey, a great value. -
Heaven Hill Bottled In Bond 7 Year
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed March 2, 2024 (edited April 12, 2024)Enjoyed a glass on the rocks at a friends house. Very well balanced. Caramel, oak, honey. I give Larceny barrel proof, its cousin, a small edge. Need to have a few more glasses fo give a more thorough and accurate review. -
Woodford Reserve Double Oaked
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed February 16, 2024 (edited April 18, 2024)Cherry, vanilla, chocolate, smoke and leather. This one surprised me with its unique smokey, yet smooth character. I’m not a fan of the regular Woodford but this was much more refined. Wish it had a little more kick but a very good dram. -
Bahnbrëcker Slow River Blend Hefeweizen Whiskey
Other Whiskey — Texas, USA
Reviewed October 12, 2023 (edited April 6, 2024)Tastes like an old fashioned in a bottle. Banana bread, spice, nutmeg, sweet but not too sweet. A great dessert sipper for a great value. Definitely unique and not for everyone. -
Calumet Farm 16 Year Single Rack Black Bourbon
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed June 10, 2023 (edited December 31, 2023)I like the 10 and really like the 16. The 106 proof adds a bite to this sweet dram but also allows for it to be enjoyed on the rocks. Cinnamon, butterscotch, chocolate, spice and smoke combine in a deliciously versatile offering from Calumet. -
Glenmorangie Nectar D'or 12 Year
Single Malt — Highlands, Scotland
Reviewed March 11, 2023 (edited February 16, 2024)Honey and citrus with a bite of ginger. Sweet honey, orange peel, apricots and sour grapes coat the mouth with a medium finish. Perfectly suited as a summer sipper on the porch with friends. A sweet dessert dram for sure.
