W. L. Weller 'Old Weller Antique 107' Kentucky Straight Wheated Bourbon Whiskey, USA
$249.99 USD
Distiller Notes
A wheated bourbon with a full-bodied flavour and a balanced palate. Old Weller Antique is bottled at 107 proof, offering a complex taste and bold finish. It’s certainly a recognisable member of the Weller label, with its own unique characteristics to compliment the high proof.
The Weller lineup is distilled using what is believed to be the same mashbill as the "Pappy" Van Winkle bourbons. The Old Rip Van Winkle 10 year old has the same 107 proof as the Weller Antique 107. Given the fact that Antique does not have an age statement, it’s not unrealistic to assume the two might be similar in makeup, even if Antique is a bit younger overall.
Tasting Notes
Sweet and unusual floral notes and coupled with vanilla. The taste is very well balanced with sweet fruit notes, strong vanilla undertone and sharp spicy tones, with a cinnamon finish.
