Whiskey Culture Nov/Dec '20

Bulleit Bourbon Blender's Select is a new addition to their line, but capitalizes on their signature bourbon profile in so many ways. Dried cherry, medium tobacco, and spiced caramel are heavy in the palate before finishing on a toasty oak note with undertones of black currant. The bottle is only available in select markets, but it's definitely worth picking up if you have the opportunity. The bottle itself will only set you back around $50-55 for the pour.

$50 Larceny is a great pour at a very affordable price. The bottle will only set you back around $25-30 and is a solid pick for those looking to stock their bottom shelf with some tasty options or find themselves a much easier to come by daily drinker. The nose has a nice profile of earthy wheat, spices, fruity sweetness, and a heat-dried pine aroma. The palate does a lot of the same, balancing a myriad of flavors so as to not pull in one direction too fully, though it does seem to flavor a spiced and savory profile slightly. The finish is classic, bringing out most of the char and singed sweets flavors you’re most likely used to from your mid-shelf bourbons.
