New Arrival: Larceny Wheated Bourbon

Hey all,

Just landed Heaven Hill’s newest offering, Larceny wheated bourbon, an off shoot brand from their Fitzgerald line. While I’m told Larceny is in the 6-8 year range I must say I was impressed with the oakiness and depth of flavor I got on this. Definitely tastes a little older, reminiscent of the Old Fitzgerald 12 year, but with the body of something like the Woodford Double Oaked. At under $30 bucks it’s a steal for sure. This might just be my new every day bourbon.

High West American Prairie Reserve!

Hey all,

Just got in the new High West American Prairie Reserve, it comes in at a very reasonable price compared to their other releases and 10% of sales go towards the American Prairie Reserve in northeastern Montana, one of the largest wildlife reserves in the country. Prairie Reserve is a blend of two straight bourbons. The first is a 6 year from the old Seagrams distillery LDI with a mashbill of 75% Corn, 20% rye, 5% barley. The second is a 10 year from Four Roses with a high rye content mashbill of 60% Corn, 35% rye, and 5% barley.

Tasting Notes:
-On the nose I get aromas of peppercorns, rye bread, ginger snaps, peanut butter cookies, mangos, yellow cake, sugar cookies and fennel. Super engaging aromas that are a perfect balance between rye spice and fresh baked cookies. On the palate I get flavors of candy corn, toffee, sweet corn, wild flower honey, milk chocolate and tiramisu. Overall it’s incredibly lush and approachable with just the right amount of peppery-earthiness in the finish. You want this.

Cheers

Nate

Just wanted to remind you all that we have a great Beer of the Month Club here at Healthy Spirits: Here’s the pitch:

Basically, I pick a few beers every month. There is no membership fee, other than the cost of the beers at a discount. It tends to be in the $55-$60 range every month. Members get tasting notes in a .pdf file. The beers can be picked up at the store within the month
they are issued. If you cannot pick them up within the month just let us know, and we will do our best to accommodate you. In addition to the beer and the notes, club members have certain privileges:

-Discount card, entitling you to 10% off purchases (some exceptions may apply)
-Right to reserve bottles (this comes in handy with limited release products. Sign up for facebook/twitter/our blog to stay up to date on new releases)
-Access to our occasional cellar sales, in which we offer rare, limited release and vintage beers

Membership is month to month, and there’s no fee to join. All you pay is the discounted cost of the club selections on a monthly basis. Makes a great gift!
