Larceny Deep Purple 9 Year Old Bourbon 750ml
Discover the lush, velvety sweetness of extra-aged wheated bourbon with Larceny Deep Purple 9-Year-Old Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey. Produced by Heaven Hill Distillery—the world’s largest producer of wheated bourbons—this special single-barrel release honours the legacy of John E. Fitzgerald and the legendary Old Fitzgerald brand with a rare, age-stated bottling from Heaven Hill’s premier rickhouses.
Available now at World of Whiskey Shop, Larceny Deep Purple 9-Year-Old replaces the standard rye grain in its mash bill with sweet winter wheat (68% corn, 20% wheat, and 12% malted barley). Aged for a full nine years in deep Level 3 charred oak barrels, this expression derives its “Deep Purple” moniker from its rich, dark mahogany color and its decadent profile dominated by dark stone fruits, berry jam, and dark wood sugars.
In the glass, it displays a striking, dark mahogany-purple hue with rich amber reflections. The nose opens with an alluring bouquet of ripe blackberry compote, dark plum, and toasted marshmallow, supported by sweet vanilla bean, brown butter, and aged oak. On the palate, a thick, rounded, full-bodied mouthfeel unleashes soft, silky flavors of dark cherry, honeyed biscuit, butterscotch, and dark cocoa, seamlessly balanced by gentle cinnamon spice and polished oak staves. Bottled at a robust proof, the finish is long, velvety, and sweet, slowly subsiding with lingering notes of sweet wheat, dark berry syrup, and warm oak spice.
A prize addition for wheated bourbon lovers, collectors, and spirit connoisseurs, Larceny Deep Purple 9-Year-Old is best enjoyed neat in a crystal Glencairn glass or over a single ice sphere. Order your bottle today from World of Whiskey Shop.
