Larceny Small Batch is a wheated bourbon, meaning wheat replaces rye as the secondary grain in the mash bill. This gives the whiskey a softer, rounder, and sweeter profile compared to traditional rye-based bourbons. Produced in small batches by Heaven Hill Distillery, it is bottled at 46% ABV (92 Proof), offering a richer mouthfeel while remaining highly approachable.
