It's time to take sides. Are you a soft and sweet wheated bourbon like Larceny, friend to all and shoulder to cry on? Or perhaps you're more the strong silent type, never straying from the true and steady path of corn, rye, and barley, providing comfort through quiet stability - an Evan Williams if ever there was one. Or you're not there to comfort anyone, but to provide spice and snark - to ignite the senses with a scathing "rye" wit that makes you the life of the party and beloved by the select few who can dish it back. Or maybe you don't need to take sides at all and you can just sit back and enjoy the myriad ways to make a delicious whiskey, enjoying the sensual feast of wood and grain in all it's intoxicating delight. Aye, we'll raise a glass - or three - to that.
LARCENY STRAIGHT BOURBON
A wheated Bourbon with a soft, rounded character. The mild crème brulee aroma leads into sasparilla and creamy caramel flavors. At 92 proof, it’s a wonder that the alcohol feels so moderate, but it makes its presence known in the cinnamon-firework finish.
EVAN WILLIAMS 2014 VINTAGE SINGLE BARREL BOURBON
Aromas of dark caramel, sweet oak and charred wood. Flavors are lush and spicy, oak with honey, apple and orange notes. The finish is long, graceful and relaxed. Smooth from start to finish, with a fair amount of oak and a medium body.
PIKESVILLE 6 YEAR RYE WHISKEY
Wonderfully delicate, with aromas of Boston creme pie, plantain, butternut squash, and brown sugar. Spicy, with a buttery sweetness to match and deep baked dark cherry flavor leading into a vanilla-tinged and spicy finish.
