Larceny Kentucky Straight Bourbon
Description
Larceny Kentucky Straight Bourbon stands out by using wheat instead of rye as the third or small grain. This substitution endows the spirit with a softer and rounder character, replacing the spicier, fruitier flavor notes typically provided by rye.
This bourbon has deep roots in the history of John E. Fitzgerald and the Old Fitzgerald brand. Master Distillers handpick a limited number of barrels from specific floor locations in the rickhouse to achieve Larceny’s distinct six-year-old taste profile.
Continuing the tradition of Old Fitzgerald, Larceny uses wheat in place of rye as the secondary grain in the mashbill, more so than any of its competitors, yielding a smoother, rounder character. The aroma is reminiscent of fresh bread and toffee, with notes of butterscotch. The taste is a delightful blend of buttery caramel and honey, offering a rich mouthfeel. The finish is long, gently sweet, and savory.
