Classic Weller 12 year old Bourbon:

Weller 12 year is a wheated bourbon distilled by Buffalo Trace using the same mash bill as the famous Pappy Van Winkle series. The popularity and scarcity of Van Winkle have boosted the popularity of other bourbons sharing the same mash bill, the chief among these being Weller 12 Year. Often heralded as “Poor Man’s Pappy” this once easy-to-find bourbon has become nearly impossible to find on the shelf resulting in a huge price increase of its own. At retail, a bottle of Weller 12 should set you back around $50. On the secondary market, it is pushing past the $150 mark. Does it live up to the hype? Let’s find out.

NOSE:

There’s almond, caramel, and vanilla upfront, with oak and leather on the backend, that are all wrapped up in a sweet-to-the-nose package. Fainter hints of citrus also develop as the bourbon breaths.

palate:

It tastes very close to how it smells. All of the nuanced aromas of the nose also develop similarly on your tongue. It has a sweetness to it, yet never goes overboard as you think it might. There’s also a subtle amount of dryness that arrives midway. The palate isn’t quite equal to the layered texture of the nose but it comes close.

finish:

It finishes with some spicy hotness but again, never goes overboard. The wheat’s sweetness is still present, but the finish is better characterized by its equal amount of dryness. It’s a nice balance between the two. Flavor-wise, the caramel and vanilla are still present along with more oak. The medium in length finish is also medium in weight.

uniqueness:

Weller 12 Year might the closest you can get to taste Pappy Van Winkle. It comes from the same recipe as Van Winkle Lot B, which is also aged 12 years but doesn’t get the sweetest spots in the warehouses. For many people, that’s enough to convince them to buy it. It’s also one of the few wheated bourbons on the market which put it into a category with few competitors. Of those competitors, 90% of them are from the same brand line. On top of that, it’s aged 12 years, far longer than most low-cost bourbons.
