Flavor Profile Differences
Proof and heat dominate the difference.
- Jack Daniel’s 14 Year: The oldest Jack Daniel's in over a century, bottled near barrel proof. Butterscotch and bakery spice over rich leather, old oak and pipe tobacco.
- Larceny Small Batch: Heaven Hill's everyday wheater and the most affordable way into the style. Soft honey and butterscotch with almost no spice, and a texture that makes the low price hard to argue with.
Which One Should You Choose?
- Go with Jack Daniel’s 14 Year if you want the oldest, strongest Jack Daniel's on the shelf with significantly more proof behind it.
- Go with Larceny Small Batch if you want an easy, sweet, genuinely inexpensive wheated bourbon at a significantly lower price point and without hunting for it.
