Larceny Barrel Proof #2 for 2022 is right here, and it provides only some average surprises in comparison with its predecessors.

For starters, the expertise feels fairly a bit younger than prior releases. Notes of peanut brittle and milk chocolate give the whiskey one thing of a Mr. Goodbar aroma to start out, punctuated by purple pepper and baking spice. There’s ample warmth on the nostril — but it surely doesn’t translate to the palate, which retreats rapidly to notes of peanut shell, backed up by blended cereal grains sprinkled with cinnamon.

Larceny typically impresses with its deep chocolate and/or fruit character, neither of which make an look right here. A wholesome dousing of water helps some banana notes come to the fore, however that is hardly breaking new floor in whiskeydom. It’s a reasonably pedestrian whiskey, however on the identical time, it’s completely approachable. If you find yourself with a bottle and don’t discover straight sipping to be a lot of a thrill, be happy to combine with it.

123.8 proof.
