W L Weller 12 Year Old Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey 1lt Bottle

Buffalo Trace Distillery has it’s ‘finger’s in many pies’ so to speak, and one deliciously sumptuous treat they offer up for our tasting enjoyment is their specialty line of W.L. Weller whiskey. Rising to the top of said pie is Weller’s 12 year old Kentucky straight bourbon. A rush if sweetness rises to the nostrils from the first pour with heavy aromatic tendrils of lanolin, almond shavings, and milk-sweet cream corn over a tantalizing tide of vanilla. The palate is wheat-forward, as if your tongue has managed to find its way into a tall, sun kissed field of new wheat. Layers of sweetly toasted oak over ribbons of caramel dipped cherries soon follow all tumbling towards a long and intensely silken finish. W.L. Weller 12 year old Kentucky straight bourbon enraptures us with classic bourbon taste lavished with just the right whisper of crushed wheat and fire-roasted warmth.
