Ben's Blind Bourbon Reviews

Pour #4

Copper colored juice with a sweeter nose, exhibiting scents of dates and citrus fruit. Stronger nose than the 1792 and Nikka.

The palate had sweetness too, molasses and fruit at the forefront. Not a lot of heat initially. The heat comes through on the finish, which is relatively long. Baking spices dominate that finish.

This was my favorite of the 4, and something I would seek out depending on price. I’m going to guess Larceny BP again, while repeating that it’s a guess as I’ve never had any Larceny product.

And I was incorrect again...in fact, this was the first of the 4 that I have previously had and even have an open bottle.

Ben, this was so interesting and so much fun! Thank you again. I'll be putting together your tasters this weekend, and look forward to being on this side of the fun next week.
