Nose....A sweet appearance of fresh banana, soft vanilla, burnt butterscotch and true ethanol saturate the air. Appearance...A nice light mahogany with rich red hues. Taste....A balanced, almost soft peppery bite followed up by sweet fruit and burnt caramel. Overall... This Wheater is definitely the meaner of the brothers in this Weller wheat family. The higher proof lends a big helping dose of heat, which truly separates this from the Green Weller. No matter the heat, this whiskey offers a refined sweetness, and a wonderfully dry finish. Is it worth searching high and low for? Probably not, but it's surely good and has a definite quality to it's overall appeal...
