Tastes

This is extremely overrated and not worth the ridiculous price. Vaults 15 year from 2023 blows it away in blinds. It tastes very young and even after leaving in the glass it's extremely disappointing. It's all toasted oak and no hints of sweetness at all. It's almost too harsh. Would recommend trying first before buying. 2 vaults 15 2023 are better value. Don't understand the 90 point rating and makes me think it's more influenced by the label rather than the whiskey itself. 83-84 points max.

Don't understand the 78 rating by the site. Totally wrong. This is for sure a MWND killer. Massive notes from the port, extremely rich and long finish.

This overall is just an extremely average bourbon. It's very astringent on the nose and palate. Very slight caramel and apple notes. If it did not have the name Weller it would never get this much attention. 107 is the star in this lineup although many full proof picks are outstanding albeit just so over priced. If you can get this at around 25 then try it. Picked it up in Ohio.

Nose - french toast, syrup, and cedar. After a little time in the glass a dusty coca picks up Palate - Sweet, maple syrup, butter and a slight toasted flavor Finish - Long.... The butter keeps cranking and the syrup and cedar keep going. Overall this store pick rivals anything out there. It doesn't have the brown sugar burn of a stagg jr or ECBP. It has its own flavor profile that showcases the toasted finish and proof combination.
