I have had every single offering in the Weller line except this one, until now...This was a sample given to me during a bottle trade.
The nose has wheat toast, rich milk chocolate, dark cherries, cooked red apples, spicey oak, and old leather. Almost like a chocolate covered cherry (which is not my favorite thing to eat, but this nose is amazing!).
The palate is sweet, thick and oily with a drying effect on the tongue. I get dark cherries, a little apple, caramel sweetness and some leather.
The finish is long with tingling on the tip of the tongue and a little burn in the middle of the chest. Cherry-vanilla flavors linger on the tongue.
Wow, very good and well balanced. This is my first WLW and I’m happy to say that I am a fan!
