Larceny barrel proof plays a role in my life similar to Bookers. If I just happen upon a bottle at SRP, I'll usually snag it up. If nothing else, it'll be some good, potent sipping bourbon. That said, unsurprisingly C924 doesn't taste its proof in the least bit. The nose is classic high proof bourbon. Dark cocoa powder, charred oak, honey roasted nuts and spicy cinnamon. This whiskey carries with it an incredibly viscous mouthfeel. Dark cocoa powder, honey roasted nuts, caramel, baking spice, and some slightly tart raspberries all jump into the mix together and actually work harmoniously with one another. The finish is long, oily and lingering. It carries some drying spice and heat. Cinnamon, dark cocoa powder, leather and ethanol all end the tasting on a satisfyingly hot and complex note. Quite a tasty one, this. Actually: the standout quality here is just how viscous and mouth coating this bourbon actually tastes. With the bottling coming in at a fiery 125.1 proof, a little goes a long way. If you can find a bottle at RRP, these Larceny Barrel Proof releases always constitutes a screaming deal.
