Not even close to the best thing tonight. We both found it disappointing.

I bought a half gallon of Larceny this evening
Not bad for a mid tier
It's 92 proof, not sure if that's just their standard proof

Really. Interesting. What was the biggest issue with it?

Wow that is really bad arse...I don’t need a computer but that makes me want one 
I bet Weller full proof was a little young tasting and hot to drink. Riding the name coat tails for profits.

Need a little help...
Not a huge whiskey drinker...
We have created a Buffalo Trace marinated cigar for one of our clients in Dallas (Twin Peaks-Addison)
I have another client that would like the same, but out of integrity, I can not use Buffalo Trace for them as well.
Can you suggest a similar product...if less expensive ..better ...that I could sub for Buffalo Trace ?
Thanks

Eagle Rare and Elijah Craig are two solid substitutes, though maybe slightly more expensive
Posted on 1/20/20 at 12:16 pm to rbdallas
Eagle rare is as close as you can get to buffalo trace... does it have to be a different distillery?

A little input on a new RUM.
Well, not new, just a new production.
Bacardi Rum (Puerto Rico) has released 4 versions of their rum in honor of the founder Facundo Bacardi.
2 are white rums, 2 are dark rums
The white rums are very good,but I do not see an exceptional side to them.
In the dark side:
#1 Paraiso:
The rum in Paraiso is blended and then rested in French cognac barrels which previously held XO cognac.
Not a heavy Oak taste, but not being a heavy whiskey/scotch drinker...., I am not a fanatic.
It also retails for about $ 250.
# 2 Exquisito:
This rum is to have been created with "cigars" in mind and frankly, it is excellent. Retails for about
$ 125 in TX about $100 in FL, not sure if available in LA.
Both of these are to be in limited quantities. I was told 6000 bottle total. We created some cigars for their launch party in Texas (Dallas).

Which is hilarious...I saw a post one Sunday where some baw cleared a store of 4 cases of the stuff at $199 a bottle. Dumbass tater spent thousands on hype juice....but of course most of it is probably getting flipped..so there's that

Full proof is super rare, and at a much higher price point.
From there, I’d say 12, 107, then reserve in terms of scarcity

No, just looking for a different name.

yup eagle rare is your best bet here. Not too much more $$ than buffalo trace and it's actually the exact same juice, just aged in a different part of the warehouse.

*note, this was a spec's single barrel selection. Regular distillery releases may be better (or worse)

Excluding W.L. Weller, C.Y.P.B. is the most difficult to find. Full Proof was recently released and flooded the market.
I just bought a bottle of C.Y.P.B. $375. You can get Full Proof on the secondary market for under $300.

I would not have expected that from s full proof but it is a wheat’er .. wonder if Larceny will be similar.
