33 open bottles of my whiskies ranked! All of these were matched with one another in multiple blind tastings. Just trust me when I say the methodology was bulletproof. The countdown will proceed from worst to first!
#33: Larceny. Kentucky Straight Bourbon. Very Special Small Batch. 46% ABV. NAS.
Paid $21
Regrettable purchase
This is a far, far last place. You cannot have this in a tasting because it will actually ruin the other whiskies. This is unbalanced nuttiness. Way too much raw peanuts and stank oils. I never had these notes in any whiskey before, but now I smell it in other whiskies, and it is disgusting. I use this in cooking, and to have a sip while cooking.
MARK: 41/100

Completely agree with this! I was surprised this is so recommended. Heaven Hill produces many first rate bourbons and many great VFM bottles (the whole Elijah Craig line), but this isn't one of them.
My feelings, exactly. I’ve never been so disappointed in a purchase. I should’ve received a medal for forcing the whole bottle down.
