As part of the wheated bourbon family, this twelve year old W. L. Weller is aged far longer than most wheated bourbons. This offering is a smooth, easy-going and balanced bourbon with a beautiful deep bronze color. Aromas of lanolin, almond, creamed corn and toasty vanilla.


The mid-palate flavor is heavily wheated, layered and moderately sweet. Long, oaky, and intensely smooth finish.
