W.L. Weller 12yr Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey  - The Original Wheated Bourbon

Review & Tasting Notes

Jonathan was fairly hesitant to be excited about another Weller bottle. Turns out, this bottle is much better than anticipated! Great bottle worth the hunt for sure!

Tasting Notes
Color Warm Amber
Nose The aromas are remarkable and rich delivering notes of cinnamon, vanilla, caramel/ butterscotch, and wood. Orange zest lingers with a touch of honey on the nose
Palate The flavors come in distinct waves in notes of spice cake, leather, mint, creamy vanilla, and exotic fruits. Wheat is prominent taking center stage with more butterscotch
Finish When sipped neat, the finish is long and downright elegant with a nice warmth of heavy oak and sweetness. Baking spice pulls on through with remnants of creme brulee with a sublt orange push-pop sweetness
