Woody notes, but not much else. Hard to taste 12 years of age in this. You can tell it's a higher proof, but it doesn't hit you like one. A little water opens up the smoke a little more, and now brings a certain nuttiness to the table. Not very spectacular, but I think it just needs a little air. Now where did my wife put my decanter...?

@Scott_E yeah same here. Had it a couple times at my local and it just never seemed to do much for me versus say Johnny Drum or Rowan's Creek even
@dubz480 I did enjoy this. Had a glass at a local bar so it wasn’t under tasting conditions. Will have to retry. Have an unopened bottle will crack on day.
@Sonic8222 @PBMichiganWolverine ah, that makes sense!
@PBMichiganWolverine Just made an Old Fashioned with it. It really does complement those flavors well.
@dubz480 I had this early in my bourbon days. Thought it was more meant for mixing
Nice review and agree with you on this one. Have had a few pours of it and am just always underwhelmed. Probably the worst of the Willett bunch
