As part of the wheated bourbon family, this twelve year old W.L. Weller is aged far longer than most wheated bourbons. This offering is a smooth, easy-going and balanced offering with a beautiful deep bronze color.
W. L. Weller was the first to offer a bourbon with wheat as the flavor grain instead of rye. The taste is dry, complex and toasty revealing cocoa dust, and soft spices. The mid-palate flavor is wheat, cedar, and nuts that are layered and moderately sweet.
TASTING NOTES:
Aromas of lanolin, almond, creamed corn and toasty vanilla. The mid-palate flavor is heavily wheated, layered and moderately sweet. Long, oaky, and intensely smooth finish.
