Larceny Small Batch Kentucky Straight Bourbon

Average, forgettable - forgot this was among whiskies tasted last night. Probably fine for the price.

Nose: ethanol then vanilla but light, sweet maybe milk chocolate. After a palette cleanse and after letting it sit for about 5 mins, now I get a fruit forward nose, Cherry then the ethanol hits again Palate: super sweet vanilla start then an immediate burn in the back of the throat Second taste and the vanilla stays longer. 2nd sip after palette cleanse is very fruity, cherry and vanilla sweetness, less burn but the tingle is still there Finish: hot and bitter, tingly on the lips. After 3rd sip the hot becomes a cinnamon flavor. Overall, it’s good. I think it should have some air before it can be fully enjoyed. A couple drops of water could probably help bring more of the fruit notes to the front and tame the hot a bit in the finish.

Pretty good for the price. Bit strong on the front but went down smooth. Good with ice.

Fresh, strong, cinnamon, not too sweet, a little smooth. Some cedar chips, maybe rosemary.

Toffee, caramel, light clove, brown sugar with a balance of oak. I find that it has good presence in the mouth and the overall impression I have is a buttered cinnamon bun. Really nice.
