Weller 12 Year Old Bourbon - 75cl 45%

Bought this on a business trip to Nashville in 2017 after sampling it in Principle Cigars smoking room. Thought it was nice but to be honest I wasnt going crazy about it as compared to the Balvenie 30 we also tried!!! My goodness....thats a separate discussion. Anyway, it had sat amongst a few other bottles in my collection and I decided to re-visit it on a random evening watching Ozark with the wife. OK wow......maybe the general conversations and flavours from an Arturo Fuente 8-5-8 Maduro back in Nashville meant that I wasnt paying attention the first time around but the complex, smooth, cured honey sweetness literally floored me this time....it was a revelation. It has gone from being a nice keepsake from a great city (Music City to be precise) to being a revered gem in my collection. I genuinely cannot remember how much I paid for it but it was no where near the price it is now however........I would actually consider buying it again even at the inflated 2020 price because it simply is that good. This will only be coming out on special occasions. Fingers crossed I get to sample it today after the cup final!!

This delicious bourbon was worth the wait, has smoky oak flavour that lingers and is very smooth. Definitely get again if I can.
