We entered this pairing into our blind sample pool to see how they compared given that they're both limited release barrel proof offerings from the Heaven Hill distillery. Heaven Hill releases both Elijah Craig and Larceny Barrel Proof three times yearly with the month and year indicated in the batch number (C920: C = third batch of the year, 9 = month of the year, 20 = year of release). Elijah Craig is Heaven Hill's classic bourbon recipe and Larceny is Heaven Hill's wheated bourbon mashbill. 🙏 SUPPORT THE CHANNEL FOR FREE (Affiliate Link) 🙏 https://amzn.to/3wZqTJj Simply go to the link above and then buy anything on Amazon as you normally would.

We like it? Thumbs up = one point. 👍 We love it? Two thumbs up = two points. 👍 👍 Take it or leave it? Just okay = half a point. 🤏 We hate it? Thumbs down = no points. 👎 We just so happen to score across 5 categories (up to 10 overall points are available): • NOSE: Aroma • FLAVOR: Taste and overall flavor profile • EXPERIENCE: Overall experience on the palate • RETAIL SCORE: Availability and pricing • CONSUMER SCORE: Would we buy a product again or not TASTING SCORE: Nose + Flavor + Experience REAL WORLD SCORE: Tasting Score + Retail Score + Consumer Score DISCLAIMER: Our scoring is merely a reference point to compare different pours over time. We believe whiskey is to be enjoyed and shared with those you care about--that's what our channel is all about and why our scoring system is largely tongue-in-cheek. We hope it can serve as a resource to you inasmuch as you can use it to compare to your own preferences and hopefully help inform your future purchases. Whiskey, just like life, is best when you don't take it too seriously and you simply enjoy the journey. Thanks so much for watching. Cheers! ZMAJ1WDLBYU83ZZU
