Nose is perkier and fruitier than most expressions from this series while still retaining core elements; Macintosh apples, caramel, spun sugar, stewed pear, vanilla, barrel char, and sweet, mature oak. Ethanol here is real, but other than that it’s a great nose. Palate brings zero fruit from those nose and throws us deep into toffee, caramel, praline, peanut brittle, burnt ends, and iced cinnamon roll. While there is nothing wrong with this palate, it was a bit of bummer since the aroma promised a truly unique experience that never came. Lacks some richness and depth. Finish brings a quick hint of apple but then it immediately sandblasted away by a blast of baking spices in the form of cinnamon, allspice, clove, and ginger along with tons of chili pepper, oak, and leather. Man this sucker finishes hot; I think my tongue is melting. There’s a hint of honey as the spicier notes fade which I found enjoyable. Mouthfeel is full and chewy, but slightly grainy with the spiciness here making things seem harsher than they should and it’s nowhere near creamy enough to balance. I do enjoy this series, but this one might be a little sub par in my opinion as I found the flavor profile to be a little too simplistic and the finish way too hot to be considered top tier. At 99.99, the combination of slight overpay coupled with a disappointing overall experience makes this probably the first Larceny BP to fall short of rebuy status.
