William Larue Weller Bourbon 2017 128.2 Proof

Our William Larue Weller bourbon has been produced in response to consumer requests for a well-aged and barrel strength whiskey. We filled these particular barrels at 114 proof in the year 2005, but after twelve years of aging the whisky is now 128.2 proof.The glass bottle chosen for William Larue Weller  is designed to showcase the whiskey’s dark and rich color. The back label provides a full product description. Every case has been hand bottled and labeled to ensure the highest quality finish.Uncut and unfiltered, this hand-bottled bourbon is barrel proof. Weller substitutes wheat for the traditional rye grain, a production method pioneered by W.L. Weller.Tasting Notes:Fragrant scents of caramel corn, new leather, plums, light toffee and pipe tobacco. The palate tastes of marshmallow, salted almonds, nougat, figs and dates. This whiskey finishes smooth, composed and flavorfully sweet.This is a real caramel bomb. Almost comically sweet waves of vanilla bean, caramel cream, baking cookies, and Werther’s Originals waft from the glass. It’s like walking past an ice cream shop firing on all cylinders at a seaside town in the middle of August.With a little water, those sugary curtains lift a bit to reveal some more anchoring qualities—a little earthiness and must, a touch of roasted corn, and a warm, textured quality of oak.Bottle Size: 750mlYear 2017Proof 128.2
