William Larue Weller 2009 Release
Country: USA
Region: Kentucky
Type: Bourbon
Bottler: Distiller
ABV: 67.4%
Score: 94 Points
This is from the 2009 Buffalo Trace Antique Collection, distilled with a wheat mashbill and bottled uncut and unfiltered. It’s dark, thick, and oily with a powerful nose. The expected alcohol burn shows up after a second or two, time enough to reveal a nuttiness with hazelnut notes. The taste is thick and chewy with a great mouthfeel and notes of caramel candy, Heath Bar (toffee), cinnamon, and hazelnut. Vanilla and cinnamon notes dominate the very smooth finish.
