On the nose is sweet oak, honey, butterscotch, red apples, leather and slightly sour wood.
-
To the palate is soft oak, light honey, savory wood spice, herbal tea, Honey Nut Cheerios and slightly underripe apple.
-
The finish has a slightly dry oak and bread flour with a slightly floral hint in the end.
—
A drop of water pushes some of that floral note up into the nose, the palate becomes incredibly thin, and the finish gains a sourness with the oak notes.

Overall, I think it’s decent. I can see why people like it, but I definitely don’t think this is the version people go crazy over. I think it’s good, but basic. I’m not a huge fan of the wheat flour note or the sour wood, but was surprised to find that Honey Nut Cheerios connection. Looking forward to tasting the other versions of W.L. Weller.
