2.5 stars - Nice but not my style; 1.75 L
This is a good $25 whiskey. This is selling for $80/750ml here. The world has lost its mind. Luckily my mom & pop liquor store had a bottle in the back at MSRP.
Makers Mark is all vanilla and caramel. Larceny is all baking spices. Weller SR is all orchard fruits. Each is a good, sub $30 whiskey and I am glad each has its own distinctive style.
This is not the poor mans Pappy’s. It is not even in the same zip code. Please stop the madness.

@Bourbon_Obsessed_Lexington Give me the weller, I hate to admit lol. That said they're all distinctly different.
Agree with the MM, larceny and SR comparison - and frankly wouldn’t pick any of the 3 over an $18 bottle of Wild Turkey or Evan Williams BiB.
