1.8 - Weller 12 Bourbon & Old Weller Antique 107 Bourbon
Manage episode 249305487 series 2591572
In this episode of the Spirits Blind Tasting podcast I'm doing a shoot-out blind tasting of the Weller 12 Bourbon and the Old Weller Antique 107 Bourbon. Feel free to follow along with a dram of any of these or any other spirit you enjoy as I try to uncover the aromas and flavors of these 2 spirits.

My tasting notes from this episode can also be found below:
Spirit A - Weller 12 Bourbon (45% ABV)
Appearance
- Clarity: Clear
- Intensity: Medium
- Color: Amber
- Suggested texture: Medium oily
Nose
- Condition: Clean
- Intensity: Medium
- Aroma characteristics: Brown sugar, caramel, vanilla, baked apples, cherry compote, soft white bread, cinnamon, hints of oak
- Other notes: Larger nosings will give off some ethanol hits, suggesting a higher proof, however it’s a very soft nose overall where all the aromas tend to blend in together.
- ABV: 53.5%
Palate
- Sweetness: Dry
- Texture: Soft and silky
Intensity: Medium - Flavor characteristics: A lot more oak and some char coming on the palate than on the nose. Dark chocolate, black pepper, cinnamon, baked apples still coming through.
- Other notes: Feels lighter on the palate than on the nose. This is more likely the Weller 12.
- Finish: Medium > long, with some complexity. Oak and black pepper, hints of char and leather
- ABV: <50%
Conclusion
- Quality level: Very Good > outstanding
- Blind guess: Weller 12
Spirit B - Old Weller Antique 107 Bourbon (53.5% ABV)
Appearance
- Clarity: Clear
- Intensity: Medium
- Color: Amber
- Suggested texture: Medium oily
Nose
- Condition: Clean
- Intensity: Medium
- Aroma characteristics: Brown sugar, caramel, vanilla, cinnamon, oak, dried orange peel, apple pie pie crust
- Other notes: Softer and more delicate nose than spirit A, but can still give off some ethanol with a big breath in. Also a very soft nose.
- ABV: 45%
Palate
- Sweetness: Dry
- Texture: Soft and mouth filling
- Intensity: Medium > pronounced
- Flavor characteristics: Oak, peppercorn, char/burnt toast, caramel, vanilla, cinnamon, leather, cherries
- Other notes: Much sharper on the palate and more bitterness than on the nose. Feels younger than Spirit A.
- Finish: Medium with some complexity. Oak, leather
- ABV: >50%
Conclusion
- Quality level: Very Good
- Blind guess: Weller Antique 107
