Weller Antique 107 Bourbon

Dry, spicy and long aftertaste

A nice wheatee bourbon from the Buffalo Trace family. At first it was just sweet cherry and oak, but after a fee sips the flavors round out and the great cinnamon spoce on the finish really comes through. Was going to score this lower but it came around as the tinish had longer time to sit.

Nose: Stone fruit like cherry, almost medicinal. Some ethanol from the proof. Buttery vanilla frosting. Palate: More cherry at the top with a hint of vanilla but shifts to cinnamon and baking spices. Finish: Baking spices take over for a medium finish. Weller Antique 107 shows what a few more proof points can do to amp up a good wheater. It’s understandable why it’s so hunted. A fantastic sipper.

Oily, cherry, lether and oak
