fishnbowljoe Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 After the first work day of the year, I'm having a couple of pours of Larceny.If I didn't have a few bottles of this already stashed away, I'd be buying a few more. I was out yesterday and stopped in at a store I haven't been to in a while. Most of the stuff they had was average or a little above average price wise. Except for Larceny. They had it for $18.99. Second cheapest I've ever seen it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r60slash5 Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 Ezra Brooks while watching "The Hustler". This has got to be in the top ten if not #1 Bourbon call movies. I lost count of how many JTS Brown calls there were.Ted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whiskeyagonzo Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 Thanks to a very generous SBer, I'm enjoying some OWO from 1973. They sure don't make wheaters like this anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flahute Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 Started the night with standard 4R SmB. Matriculated up to '14 4R LE SmB. Now the wife is requesting Sazeracs so it looks like I'm moving on to mixed drinks now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyleCBreese Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 A few pours of the OESF I bought today. Really loving the minty, fruitiness, that I am getting from this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brettckeen Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 Tonight a nice 11yr WFE brbn picked by west Lakeview liquors in Chicago shared with friends in nola. Then some w12 and gts14. Anissette is screaming out of gts14, the WFE tastes like grapes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richnimrod Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 A generous Pour of Larceny. One of the best bargains in Bourbon today... especially if you like a wheater as well as a more 'usual' (rye mashbill) dram. Very Nice easy drinker.

Quintilian Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 Joe, how do you compare this to the various Old Fitzgeralds it has seemingly replaced? The Old Fitz's are no longer available around here, and neither is Larceny for that matter, but I can at least get Larceny online if need be. I'm looking for a reasonably priced wheater (besides MM) now that the Weller products have gone the way of hens teeth.I've had both OldFitzBiB and Larceny. I enjoy both. To my palate, OldFitzBiB is spicier and has a bit more kick at the back end, and Larceny is dangerously smooth and enjoyable. I prefer Larceny over MM and Weller SR, which I haven't seen around here lately. I've read rumors that OldFitzBiB is going away, but I've found it at Binny's whenever I get to one around here. I hope HH keeps OldFitzBiB going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaryT Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 Started out before lunch with a little blind tasting of OBSK and OBSO. Not sure I could pick a winner - loved different things about each of them! Keeping it simple this afternoon by targetting some low fills: AAA 10 Star followed by some 1792 RR.
