David Nicholson 1843

Love the expert’s comments. Dead on. The alcohol was the first initial arime. Slaped me in the face. It did mellow out real quick. Very inviting. Honey notes for sure. Sweet. I can get the sawdust also.

David Nicholson 1843 was another bourbon I had been wanting to try from the selection wheated bourbons that were formerly produced by Stitzel-Weller during the 20th century. I let this sit for about 10 minutes. When I dove my nose around this, I smelled ethanol and a faint scent of maple syrup. I picked up caramel, butter, maple syrup, and some wood on the palate. The finish was medium-length, and it's a little bit hot and oaky as well. This isn't bad, but I wouldn't pay $35 for this again. I really like Larceny, and I'm also a fan of Rebel 100. If I were to buy this on a regular basis: 1) I'd have to be able to find it near me as opposed to ordering it online from a liquor store in California, and 2) I wouldn't be willing to pay more than I pay for a bottle of Larceny Small Batch ($26.99) or Rebel 100 ($21.99). Without taking price and availability into account, I'd say this is a respectable 3.75/5. However, as I feel this is a little bit overpriced and isn't available nearby me, I'm bumping my rating down to a 3.25.
