-
Nose:
Bold pancake syrup, waffle batter, pleasant honey and caramel, rich and sticky toffee on the nose. It's all sweet and a touch savory with a hint of oak on the nose that screams Larceny.
-
Taste:
Rich on the palate. There's a pop of ethanol and pepper, but it's pleasant and quickly develops into a slugfest of various desserts. Sweet maple, caramel candies, fresh-baked bread and cookie dough. Light pepper, nutmeg and a touch of ginger. Back to waffle cone on the back palate, with oodles of nougat.
-
Finish:
Long with a pleasant blend of sweet and spicy that's all maple, pepper and a fat handful of Werther's caramel candies.
-
Overall:
Larceny nails it again with a killer batch of barrel-proof, wheated bourbon. Great stuff.
