About this whiskey

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 offering with a beautiful deep bronze color.

Tasting Notes

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.

Awards/Reviews:

Double Gold - SF World Spirits Competition 2023, 2022

Gold - Whiskies Of The World 2022

93 Points - Intl Wine & Spirits Competition 2022

"Beautifully balanced and expressive as oak and cereal notes infuse with white chocolate truffle and vanilla, elegantly interlaced with pecans and a subtle menthol character."

Best Bourbon Of 2021 - Breaking Bourbon

"It’s hard not to get a kick out of Weller 12 Year’s rags-to-riches backstory. Once a $20 bottom shelf dweller, it was slingshotted to stardom due to its ties to Pappy Van Winkle, which has also made it a brand many love to hate. Yet, the brand often offers a decent-to-high quality pour most years. Despite the fever surrounding it and subsequent difficulty finding a bottle, the whiskey typically delivers and that is certainly true in 2021. It’s a banger year for Weller 12 Year, offering excellent balance, pitch perfect intensity, and despite being straightforward, nails the classic bourbon flavor profile. Above all else, it’s a bourbon anyone can enjoy.

Spirit Journal:
The deep bronze color beautifully reflects the light. High-spirited, lusciously toasty, and animated bouquet that has top-notch Bourbon written all over it; dry, complex, and toasty palate.
