A buddy brought over a bottle of Larceny on Sunday for some hoops watching.
Very good stuff if you like your bourbon wheated with nice caramel notes.

Recently discovered Old Granddad Bonded. For $22 it's pretty great. I usually buy Weller as my budget bourbon but it's often hard to find. This is a good alternate for a daily sipper or for cocktails.
My favorites (when budget allows) are Blanton's and Four Roses Single Barrel or Small Batch ... for comparison purposes.
The Weller and Old Grandad Bonded aren't as good but are great considering they are half the price of my favorites.
I tried this recently based on recs and didn't love it. The flavor was off in some way I can't describe.Originally Posted by Larry Sellers
Ya know, I can see that with ANY of the bourbons that folks have recommended. I think it's real similar to pistol sights, everyone has what they like, what the love and what they'll settle for.
Look! Just because we're bereaved, that doesn't make us saps!
Damn dude 135 proof! I am curious what your impressions of it are.
I sip Evan Willams. There are better but I like it.
I like it, but it definitely needs (or I need) to sit over ice for a bit to soften the burn. I love wheated bourbons. This just needs a bit of ice water and then it’s damn good.

"Aged at Sea"..... Really? How does that pass the "So, What" test?I've been exploring the Jefferson's lineup and enjoying it. So far my favorite is the Old Rum Cask finish, followed by the Ocean. I recently picked up the Chef's Collaboration, and I like the rye blend. Jefferson's tends to experiment a bit more compared to other brands, and I find them a bit more interesting for it.

Considering that this "old salt" was a mere 9 years old when the picture was taken, it must be powerful stuff!
There's nothing civil about this war.
Well, there's this article, "For A Faster-Aged Bourbon, You Need The Motion Of The Ocean", or maybe that's just marketing. I just like how it tastes.
