It’s Weller Wednesday So Let’s Talk 107

Bourbon Heritage Month Day 27

It’s the last Wednesday of Bourbon Heritage Month so it’s time to look at Weller Bourbon. Today we look at a bourbon I have to admit I over paid for but I really wanted a new Weller 107, so let’s dive into this single barrel.

Just the facts: Weller 107

Style: Kentucky Straight Wheated Bourbon
Mashbill: Buffalo Trace Wheated
Proof: 107
Price: $149.99

Jake’s tasting notes: Weller 107

Nose: as you would expect with a wheated bourbon it starts of sweet to the nose with brown sugar, raisin,and a hint of cinnamon. As I explore the nose deeper there are hints of vanilla, nutmeg and all spice.

Palate: This pour comes out a little warm to my palate but coats it with its creamy mouthfeel. On the second sip the spice rack shows up – toasted cinnamon, honey, and raisins with a hint of citrus

Finish: lingers with sweetness and a hint with a pepper and raisins.

Closing thoughts

After sipping this again tonight I remembered again that Weller 107 never disappoints. If you have bottle of 107 do your self a favor and pour a dram and enjoy it today!
