John E. Fitzgerald Larceny Small Batch Bourbon continues the Old Fitzgerald tradition of using wheat in place of rye as the third or “small” grain in the whiskey’s grain recipe or mash bill as it is commonly known.
The use of winter wheat replaces the spicier, fruitier flavor notes that rye provides with a softer, rounder character that is the hallmark of Old Fitzgerald and other “wheated” Bourbons such as Maker’s Mark and the Van Winkle line.
Nose: Warm bread, toffee, and a dash of butterscotch.
Palate: Rich with caramel, orange blossom honey, and bread pudding.
Finish: Long, layered, and savory.
Cheers, and enjoy this Bourbon!
