Weller Antique 107 Bourbon

Typically, I stick to scotch, but I have been known to occasionally enjoy a bourbon. Not being into corn liquor, it makes me happy to hear this is based mostly off of wheat. I’ve done a bit of ryes, but not sure if I’ve had a wheat version. The nose is very inviting since I can detect some powdered sugar balanced by cinnamon. Apples, nuts, honey and vanilla are in there too. The more you nose though the sweetness fades. Seems like the legs run fast so I think it’s going to be a thin mouthfeel, but we’ll see. I was wrong, it’s a medium mouth coat. At 53% ABV, only a couple drops of water may be used. Mmmmm the palate is really nice, and I consider it like a bourbon/rye hybrid, but the wheat really saves the taste. Nice amount of spices like nutmeg, cumin, coriander, mixed with some nice vanilla, red apples and brown sugar. The finish is medium to long, but comes with some bitter almonds and walnuts. Not overly dry, but not sure if I am enjoying the aftermath. I think I should drink more of it. Thanks so much @Scott_E. It might not be a home run for me, but it’s a very nice triple. Complex 4.0!
