Uncut and unfiltered, this hand-bottled bourbon is barrel proof. Weller substitutes wheat for the traditional rye grain, a production method pioneered by W.L. Weller.
Fragrant scents of caramel corn, new leather, plums, light toffee and pipe tobacco. The palate tastes of marshmallow, salted almonds, nougat, figs and dates. This whiskey finishes smooth, composed and flavorfully sweet.
Age: 12 years 7 months old at bottling.
Proof: 129 proof (64.5% ABV)
Tasting Notes:
Nose: Layers of vanilla and maple, enriched by the depth of worn leather and a subtle hint of tobacco.
Palate: A graceful balance of sweet vanilla and toasted oak.
Finish: Smooth and lingering, revealing a touch of ripe fruit alongside steady oak and vanilla.
Batch Specific Reviews:
“The nose is full of aromas of baked wheat (like shredded wheat cereal) with dashes of baking spice and cherry compote. The palate is on the rich side, with sweet notes of cooked cereal grain, cocoa, and cherry preserves. Spicy notes of cinnamon and nutmeg carry into a finish that goes out with only a slight flash of heat breaking up the chocolate-cherry fullness.” – Amanda Schuster, Distiller (93 Points)
“Upon first sniff, the William L. Weller is giving off strong scents of caramel and molasses, with some of the charred oak barrels peeking through. The flavor is spiced, but not too spicy, with burnt caramel notes.” – Heather Clark, Tasting Table
