Larceny Barrel Proof. Image courtesy Heaven Hill Distillery.The second release of Larceny Barrel Proof is labeled #B520 – B for the second batch of the year, 5 for May, and 20 for 2020. This version has notes of brown sugar, caramel, honey, muted spices, and hints of tobacco and leather on the nose. The taste has a good balance between spices and sweeter notes of dark chocolate and caramel. Clove, cinnamon, and cardamom take center stage with a mouth-watering character. The finish has lingering spices with hints of dark chocolate and dried fruits. Very nice! (May, 2020)
