We’re lastly catching up with the ultimate bottle of Larceny Barrel Proof for 2024, C924, which hit in September of final 12 months. The brand new labeling we introduced early final 12 months is now in impact.
Larceny C924 is a stable, if decidedly wood-forward, expression of this now-classic wheated bourbon, actually doubling down on an fragrant agenda that prioritizes toasty char, cinnamon, cloves, and bbq burnt ends. The smoldering barrel notes give method only a bit late within the recreation to indicate off some darkish chocolate and a touch of mint, however it’s a very long time coming, so plan to let this one relaxation within the glass for longer than you in any other case may.
On the palate, there’s a clearer sweetness that approaches burnt marshmallows and vanilla caramel, touched with a light-weight grind of citrus peel. Chocolate arrives late within the recreation, complemented by notes of toasty butter cookies, Nutella, and a small grind of black pepper. The warmth right here isn’t unnoticeable, and water tames a few of the extra fiery components that ring the perimeters. This helps evoke extra of a salted caramel notice on the end, the maritime ingredient more and more distinct with the extra water you add to it.
Enjoyable stuff, and at this worth, it makes it simple to see why Larceny Barrel Proof has turn out to be such a fan favourite of late.
125.1 proof.
