For those who know me, it’s no secret that I love whisky and all things considered I’m more of a scotch kinda guy. Although, every once in a while there comes a Bourbon or a Rye that makes me reevaluate my taste buds and say, “Why haven’t we met sooner?”. Larceny is one of those drams. I’m just scratching the surface of American Whiskey, so like a newbie I tend to prefer my stuff a bit sweeter on the palate, though I do enjoy wood characteristics as a secondary component. I’m not too into the whole “in your face wood” drams which people tend to enjoy, but I can see the appeal since some people don’t like a lot of peat in their scotch. It’s all about personal taste, which is why I love the world of food and drink so much. Wheaters like Larceny get extra marks in my book. A Whiskey I can sit and analyze or just sip and enjoy. I just can’t stop drinking it. Here’s what I get

Price: $20-$30

Sight: clear bronze, amber if you will. (Doesn’t mean much in matters of taste, but I like to think of adjectives) legs are medium

Smell: Winter spice, orange peel, oak, something sweet

Feel: a tad oily

Taste: oak, fruit (maybe cherry or other stone fruit), that sweet winter spice

Finish: Medium- pepper, oak, a little dry

Sit back, take a Sip and enjoy
