This was 31 USD for 1.5 oz pour Sample rating: Average +5.5 If you factor in the MRSP price of $99, this would be 4.5 / 5 stars. If you factor in the secondary market price of $800, this would be 1.5 / 5 stars. I’m going to average this out to 3 stars. William Larue Weller is a spicy red succubus on the nose, a confectionary supernova on the palate, and molten oak slag on the finish. My favorite WLW was 2013. 2016 was almost as good, and this expression has gotten worse each year after 2016. This is still a decent pour to try for $30, as it gives you mounds of brown sugar, waterfalls of maple syrup, fistfuls of nutmeg, sprinkles of paprika, and all the cinnamon in the world. The amplitude is 11. This is Pappy Van Tingle from the roof of the mouth to the bottom of the balls. Fuck a hug; this is a Kentucky chokehold. And I just had to tap out towards the finish, where it becomes hot, bitter, woody punishment. Even with water. After I finished, a mint saved my life. Good Lord, nobody will accuse this 2018 WLW of being subtle.
