ABOUT

W.L. Weller 12-Year-Old Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey is a premium wheated bourbon from the renowned Buffalo Trace Distillery.

Aged for a minimum of 12 years, it offers a deep, complex taste that has made it a favorite among bourbon enthusiasts.

TASTING NOTES

Nose: Weller 12 Year embraces a traditional bourbon aroma with strong upfront scents of caramel, vanilla, and charred oak. There’s a powerful degree of sweetness to it which is further emphasized by the introduction of fruit. An amalgamation of apple, apricot, and cherry forms the high point of the sip and is extremely effective despite its straightforwardness. With touches of dry leather and sweet oak weaving their way in and out, the aroma brings just the right amount of depth, leaving you unabashedly satisfied by every part of it.

Palate: Warm red fruit comes out in droves and combines with sweet charred oak and vanilla caramel candy, making for a striking first impression. It does this seemingly with ease, as the bourbon features perfect intensity as all of its flavors work in sync. Flash and gimmicks are kept in check as this is a straight-shooting bourbon that’s devoid of such things, choosing instead to lean into what it does best: balanced flavor and pitch-perfect intensity, which results in a top-tier showing for the brand.

Finish: As is usually the case with Weller 12 Year releases, its finish hits just the right intensity. It starts soft and tempered but gently ramps up, pushing forward notes of sweet oak, cinnamon, and toasted pecans. As the heat intensifies, the bourbon’s red fruit notes return, enveloping your mouth with their warm sweet flavors. Though the finish is not overly complex, the bourbon utilizes its flavors to their maximum potential, and the results are utterly fantastic.
