I did a blind of ECBP A124 against all the 2023 releases and my final ranking was C923>A123>A124>B123. So this newest batch was sort of middle of the road for me as far as ECBP releases go.
GREAT timing! I just bought both of these bottles this past week. I have only opened the Larceny ... very nice for the price point. Looking forward to the EC. Maybe today I am smoking some baby backs.
Happy Monday gentlemen! Picked up an Isaac Bowman Port Finished and a Ben Holladay Soft Red Wheat Bottled-in-Bond last week. Once I acquire a couple more I'm gonna blind them all. Haven't even cracked the bottles yet. ECBP A124 and ECTB just dropped allocated this last week in Ohio.
I love those 2 bottles. Opened them up yet? I haven't had the ECBP A124 but I was not impressed with the toasted. I'm from MO so I may be partial to the Holladay.
@@mattschmitt9924 Holladay is solid. Love the Isaac Bowman. I also acquired an EC Toasted, it's probably my favorite bottle. Toasted profile seems to really hit my palate.
Right there with you Kurt. I love the Elijah Craig Barrel Proofs and have yet to find a Larceny Barrel release I enjoy. I'm also a huge Wild Turkey fan. So it has to be a similar pallet type thing.
Our local shop finally got the A124 and I snagged it today! I like it! Definitely oaky, some good vanilla sweetness. 119 proof is a good proof point IMO
Thank you for a great comparison of these barrels, I like EC BP and scored a A124 bottle. I also was lucky enough to get a C923 bottle and thought that was one of the best EC bottles I have had. Can not wait to crack this new bottle and see how it fares. Thank you both for your videos and cheers!
Great show, i like the both but lean more to ECBP. I will have to pick up the LBP A124 soon so i can blind it as well. Thanks for the flavor profiles on these.
I’m 99% sure you did a video with Larceny b593, because I went out and bought one because you guys said it was good. Immediately bought another! I could not get a EC C923, but got a b523 and I am really enjoying that! I may pass on these two for now. I am very grateful for this channel, so far you have not steered me wrong, and this is the only bourbon channel I watch , always a good laugh!
I've got both the A barrel ECBP and the Larceny BP. Both hit differently but I noticed after a week of opening the ECBP it blossomed and he Larceny BP was equally good. Spot on with your reviews.
Texas here, we're usually pretty late to the party but I have already picked up (and gifted) an ECBP A124. It was alright but too earthy for me, but my friend loved it so I donated it to his bar.
I can’t get enough of the larceny C923. Would love to see you guys do a side-by-side with several different batches. The A124 was no comparison to the. C923 for me. Oh my God
I've been really impressed with the last couple Larceny BP releases. We just gor the A124 releases a couple weeks ago. I thought this ECBP was a little bit off profile. More of a butterscotch than the traditional cherry cola. I do think I prefer the a little lower proofed ECBPs. I've recently blended down a few EC private barrels with the EX small batch to around 115 and they are fantastic. You lose that big in your face proof blast and end up with a more chocolate and cherry sweet pour.
I am with Trent on Larceny, it is exactly how I feel about it. I do have the B523 batch. It is just delicious and the finish is what I am looking for in a Bourbon.
@@mattthomas291 Awesome! The grocery store near me has 3 cases of B523 and I was hesitant because I hadn't seen a comment on it. Thanks for the heads up!
I really liked my Larceny B523. I just got an ECBP A124 and it's good, but different than other ECBPs I've had. I get an almost buttered popcorn finish on it.
I had the ECBP after a Rebel Cask strength. The BP has a delicious first note and then falls off for me. That Rebel Cask store pick was a gift that kept on giving.
Florida Panhandle, we never get anything, never ever, especially allocated whiskeys of any kind. It truly sucks down here. I drink vicariously with you guys. 😅
I just bought these Friday! I actually like the EC A124 a little better than the EC C923. Most people are the opposite since its lower proof and not as long aged but not me; I'd like to see a blind comparing the various EC expressions. To each his own. Like Larceny, too, but generally prefer the EC. I bought my bottles at Kroger, Larceny for around $60 and EC $85. Thanks for the video, once again, appreciate the honest reviews!
I looked all over Panama City Beach and surrounding areas for ECBP and Larceny BP and could not find them anywhere. A lady at Corks and Barrels at Santa Rosa Beach told me she keeps ordering it but it's always out of stock. I'll check in Orlando area this coming weekend.
I enjoy the regular Larceny and am looking forward to picking up the A124. I haven’t had any of their barrel proofs so should be a good one. I picked up a barrel proof Jeptha Creed this weekend and really enjoyed it.
You should do an EC BP blind with all the A releases You have. Then part 2 all the B releases. Then part 3 all the C releases. Include an EC small batch in the mix and go to town!
Larceny barrel proofs are possibly my number one regular release. A123 is one of my favorite bottles it’s exceptional. C923 was very close to it as well.
Thank you for the review! 😀Don't feel bad! These two releases just showed up here in San Antonio in my neck of the woods! I also just picked-up both and love them both! Granted, the Larceny C922 (C923 was very good; but C922 was even better) is far superior to A124. However, the Larceny BP A124 is still worth if for Larceny BP enthusiasts! I still prefer ECBP. But to be fair, they are different flavor profiles. And Larceny is the wheater, making a comparison more like apples to oranges. Despite the lower age and the 119 proof of the ECBP A124, it is still a very delicious pour! It is not always about the proof - but about the quality! P.S. I found ECBP C922 so delicious, that I got an extra bottle! And that was the year, in my opinion, that Larceny BP B522 was the weakest of that year from Larceny. Footnote: I still have not been able to purchase or even try the ECBP C923! ☹
Nice review! I have enjoyed all my batches! I’m in California and in my area of the state they are usually a batch out more behind and you can still get some older batches. The store owners don’t get each batch they wait until what they have sells. One store still only has ECBP B522 so I’ve still never seen the C923
Just to clarify do you literally leave the top off of the whiskey to let it air out or do you just open up when you get home and put the cap back on Hope this isn't a stupid question but I'm pretty sure I heard Kurt say he leaves a bottle open overnight with the cap off Love your channel and love being a subscriber
I have a bottle of that barrel proof Larceny. I get Almonds which is also what I get from their small batch, it's just not as prominent in the barrel proof. I love it, but then I love wheated bourbons.
I've only been really sipping whiskey for a lil over a year and I've really noticed just how much the flavors can change depending on how and when you drink it 🤯
I can't speak to either of these. I have a horrible time finding them. The Larceny C923 finally showed up at my local shop like 2 weeks ago. I think the dude they were holding it for never showed. It was 80, I jumped on it. It's worth 80. It's honestly kinda amazing.
all the 23's from larceny were great! a123 and b523 i liked more than the rest , passed on a 124 ecbp couple days ago bc the 119 proof as i havea 129proofer single barrel
I keep telling myself I don't need every release of these, but I keep hunting/buying them. I have ECBP A124 ordered and will undoubtedly get the LBP if I can find it.
Larceny is just ok for me. I keep 1 or 2 of them on bar but don’t worry about getting the batches just replace when a bottle is empty. The ECBP I tend to have 6-10 between the a,b,c and store picks. I wait to see what batches may just ok and skip those so rarely get all 3 of the yearly releases.
I can’t say I prefer Larceny BP over ECBP. I can usually find Larceny where ECBP is much harder and usually marked up to $90. So I always get the LBP. Cheers
A Heath bar would give you a chocolate and toffee combo. I have not had the A124 of either, hoping to get some ECBP. For last year the ECBP A123 was my favorite for all 2023 releases
I like both larceny and Elijah Craig normal proof. I will not by the higher proofs. The highest proof I like, and drink is Russell's single barrel with ice. My wife and I, each bought full proof 1792 at the distillery it is a bit hard to drink. We do have a 45 ml night cap most every night, as we are in good health and in our 70's, it may be good for us. I really like your channel.
I love LBP and am very happy YT seems to dislike it. I've don't like EC or ECBP so it always makes me happy to know people aren't buying up my favorites due to tater FOMO. Trenton and I may disagree on malt but he is my guy for rye and wheat
Yesterday I walked into a random store and found both Larceny C922 and C923, bought both for $56 each! I have only ever seen ECBP once and today in my usual store they had both EC and Larceny A124. I passed on both because I just bought the others. Did I make the right call?
The best from last year in LBP were the B and C batches (FM top 5) I think the B523 was the best. And C922 was supposedly the first real heavy hitter…would love to see just a blind of recent Larceny BP👍
Forgot which whiskytuber said that the Larceny A124 went 180 degrees from earlier ones in that they used to be sweet and this one is VERY spice forward. IDK because I still haven't tried any of these or the ECBP's. I will at some point.
Kurt, I’ve been watching a bunch of your old videos. I know you’re a big fan of Elijah Craig Barrel Proof C919, B520, & C923. I couldn’t find whether you said your absolute favorite. Would love to know. Thanks
You must have read a different report than I did. The Breaking Bourbon judgment I read said Elijah Craig C923 was named Bourbon of the Year. @@stevefromchicago8277
I’ve never had the Larceny BP but I’ve had the standard Larceny and that’s exactly how I felt about the finish on that. It was very peppery and I was not a fan of it.
I usually love them both, but my gut tells me I'll like the Larceny BP better for the A124 release. Haven't seen them around here in NY yet, but we'll see!
I got mine first week of February. Larceny wins this round of the A's. I paid $62 for the larceny and EG i paid $72 C923 and B523 in the top 5 of Fred's top 100..
Love Larceny BP too but don't have the A124 yet. I love the B523, but the C923 a little less. It doesn't surprise me that Trenton likes Larceny since we seem to have similar tastes. I'm guessing he would like the Still Austin Cask Strength because it is currently my favorite. And its $50 and easy to find In Minnesota anyway... I found that you did try the Still Austin Cask Strength about 10 months ago.
I enjoy them both. Releases always seem to give an edge to one or the other. I have the EC124 but haven’t cracked it open. Passed on the Larceny this time. Trent likes the wheaters, so has he tried the Bernheim Barrel Proof editions? I have their B923 @120.4 proof. It’s pretty tasty.
Yeah I probably won't be hunting either of these down. If I happen to see them at MSRP I'll probably pick them up, but not hunting them down at all like I did for ECBP C923.
I still have some A123 and B523 ECBP, never saw the first bottle of C923 (go figure) and now that I’ve made up my mind to skip A124 it’ll probably be everywhere. More for others I guess.
Thank goodness for Kurt’s opinion, all my whiskey friends say I’m nuts for not enjoying most Larceny barrel proofs 😂 I don’t feel completely insane
I did a blind of ECBP A124 against all the 2023 releases and my final ranking was C923>A123>A124>B123. So this newest batch was sort of middle of the road for me as far as ECBP releases go.

2 of my favorite yearly releases. Jan, May, or Sept, count me in. Haven't had one that I didnt love.
Absolutely love Larceny BP, definitely in my top 5 of bourbons I've tried. Elijah Craig BP is really solid, but I generally prefer the Larceny

Maybe it was $69 🍻

Yep, I’m in Texas and we just got ours today. Fairly typical for the Lone Star state.
I bit the bullet and bought a Elijah Craig C-923 on secondary for posterity. It should arrive today or tomorrow 😊
I really liked my Larceny B523. I just got an ECBP A124 and it's good, but different than other ECBPs I've had. I get an almost buttered popcorn finish on it.
The B523 is CRAZY good. Really enjoyed that one.
Really?? I didn’t care for B523 and the only Larceny BP I didn’t like
So what is a "baking spice" note? Seems generic and I can't place what it is.
I think it's largely nutmeg, with some cinnamon and sugar. That's at least how I and friends describe it. 🤷♂️
Cheers guys, just grabbed my ECBP A124 tonight & can't wait to try a pour.. Also in Indiana
I had the ECBP after a Rebel Cask strength. The BP has a delicious first note and then falls off for me. That Rebel Cask store pick was a gift that kept on giving.

90% of stores have B523 or something older here in FL! Super frustrating but I was able to get an EC C923 via other means
I love the Larceny!! I get a chili pepper infused snickers bar tatst
First sip of EC thought it was spicy. But after I let it open up a couple days, it was a better pour. Getting the sweeter side of the juice.

I'm in Florida and I'm still waiting for my Elisha Craig 12 year barrel proof. And it's March 1st
Just got it here in PA on the 8th.. was hesitant to purchase because of the reviews but I took the plunge and like it a lot. Spicy as heck but good!
Did you guys get those Glen's mixed up? I have the A124 Larceny BP and it reminds me of a Snickers. Your notes on Elijah are close to the Larceny.

I believe Minnick rated A123 and C923 Larceny 2nd and 3rd on his top 100
What’s funny is Larceny B523 was Breaking Bourbon’s bourbon of the year 😂
You must have read a different report than I did. The Breaking Bourbon judgment I read said Elijah Craig C923 was named Bourbon of the Year.

@@stevefromchicago8277 right? I expected B523 to be way more popular than C923 with how it was reviewed.

I’ve never had the Larceny BP but I’ve had the standard Larceny and that’s exactly how I felt about the finish on that. It was very peppery and I was not a fan of it.

Ok! What is a baking spice?
I love them both but feel they are both very different to my pallet. Larceny is my slight preference.

I wish it were easier to find where I am (VA), but yeah, that Still Austin is so, sooo good!
Haven’t seen either one yet in Southern California 😏
Great review. I’ll take the Larceny BP!
I enjoy them both. Releases always seem to give an edge to one or the other. I have the EC124 but haven’t cracked it open. Passed on the Larceny this time.
Trent likes the wheaters, so has he tried the Bernheim Barrel Proof editions? I have their B923 @120.4 proof. It’s pretty tasty.
I recently tried both A124’s and didn’t really care for either of them. I preferred the C923 versions of both.
Yeah I probably won't be hunting either of these down. If I happen to see them at MSRP I'll probably pick them up, but not hunting them down at all like I did for ECBP C923.
Wait, he left the bottles out in the garage without a cork in place for a week?
I still have some A123 and B523 ECBP, never saw the first bottle of C923 (go figure) and now that I’ve made up my mind to skip A124 it’ll probably be everywhere. More for others I guess.
As far as I know, my area hasn’t even seen the Larceny C923 yet
Mississippi is last to get stuff. Peerless Double Oak just showed up down here two weeks ago
Look into “West by-gawd Virginia….and reconsider, please
