Larceny’s nose and palate are not offensive, but nothing to write home about. Caramel and bananas come to mind. The palate is nutty, however somewhat bitter. There is some nice spice on the finish, however I find it to be a bit short, possibly a reflection of the lower proof. If you are a fan of wheaters, this may be a good bourbon to jump on. At $23, there are very few other options that are as nice as this for the price point.
