smokinjoe Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 Picked this up on a whim. It’s better than I expected. The whiskey is soft, but the wine cask finish is soft, as well. They put this together in a way that creates a well done integrated finished bourbon that brings out the whiskey while not overdoing the finish. Not easy to do. It works. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulO Posted April 26, 2023 Author Share Posted April 26, 2023 I'm with another old standby - JW Dant. Bonus is I found 1 liter size (for the first time) and a deal price. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know that I should like the Larceny BP, because of the mixed reviews, but I had another release over the weekend, provided by my DIL and I reaaaaaally dig this... I'm not a fan of the standard Larceny, but I did buy a bottle of the BP C922 release and it's really good. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never tasted the standard Larceny as the reviews contained a variable that made me chicken out; however, the 2 samples of BP that I've tried, has me sold. so far... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mbroo5880i Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 (edited) WTRB while watching the Carol Burnett 90 Years of Laughter and Love special. I used to absolutely love that show. Carol and her ensemble cast were hilarious. Enjoying a classic whiskey while enjoying comedy skits of a classic entertainer.

Around 1976 I worked for a guy whose ex-wife was a dancer on the Carol Burnett Show. She got tickets for me to take my mom to see the show live when she was visiting me in L.A. Lot of fun. The Elephant story and the Dentist skit are true classics. Of course the greatest moment in sitcom history was the final episode of Bob Newhart's second sitcom, "Newhart." Oh, yeah, drinking some Rebel 100 at the moment. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I avoided the standard Larceny for years as it seemed no one had a good word to say about it. A while back I picked up a couple of bottles that were bundled with batches of the Barrel Proof that I wanted. I was surprised that I liked it a lot more than I thought I would. I found it well rounded with some nice sweet flavors and those bottles didn't hang around for too long. It makes a good first pour of the night when 100+ proof pours can seem too hot. YMMV. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bayouredd Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 Started with a George Remus; extra nice today... Next, TW pick, WRDO - this was beautiful; must have needed 'The Sweet" Lastly a Dickel 15... Semi-Pro Synopsis - If it wasn't for the Dickelness in Dickel, this would be a Very Special Thing Now, I don't fault fans of Dickel; it would be like addicts of raw oysters or IPA's, but I have to be in the mood for the Dicklelatude of Dickel to even give it a go on that particular day. Barring Dickeldom, this is a very flavorful whiskey in the top of it's class... P.S. Not so much the IPA's but raw oysters are The Bomb... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not a huge wheater fan, but I like Larceny as a lower-proof wheater. I'd like to SBS it with some other lower-proof wheaters: WSR, Rebel 100, and a couple of Larceny store picks I have on hand. I also use it like I use Elijah Craig, to mix with their BP version when I want a flavor boost but don't want to drink in the 125-plus proof range. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not in the mood for it very often but, when I am, it scratches an itch that nothing else can touch. The 15 year is my favorite. Yes, raw oysters are the bomb! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I scratch my itch with a snaggled finger nail. Feels good at first but then it starts burning. Sometimes after I scratch I will rub isopropyl alcohol on the scratch mark. That lets me know I am still alive. I opted for WTRB tonight while watching the f...ing Colts continue to trade back in the draft. I just might...oh who am I kidding, I will ...open a just purchased bottle KCSiB 120. I need to deaden the pain of another lost NFL season 4 1/2 months before its starts. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokinjoe Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 From the, “I never gave much hope that I would like this when I bought it, but dang I do” category, it’s Longbranch this afternoon.
