Blah!
First time having Weller's Special Reserve and my impression wasn't all that great. I was expecting so much more to this and was quite let down.
Nose - Leather, honey and caramel
Taste - immediately sweet with minimum spice
Finish - Butterscotch and a load of poppycock
I've drank worse, but I wouldn't even bat an eye at this. Save your hard earned cash and buy something better.
I've had this built up as such a great bourbon, by so many people. Kind of a letdown. Very approachable, not alot of spice. But I found it to be lacking in flavor. The whole taste profile is over very quickly, with nothing spectacular to write home about. If you're new to whiskey, yah give it a go. It'll get your foot in the door without much fuss.
