Review - Weller Special Reserve
Distillery : Buffalo Trace Owner : Sazerac Type : Straight Bourbon Age : NAS Proof/ ABV : 90 / 45% Nose : A very pleasant sweet orange note hits you up front. This is followed by the standard Bourbon vanilla and caramel notes. Lots of sweetness in the nose here. Very inviting. Nose Score: 3.5 pts Palate : A short punch of citrus note greets you up front. This transitions into sweet notes of vanilla and caramel. The sweetness is followed by baking spices ending with a slight nutty note. This has very little body in the palate. Palate Score: 3 pts Finish : Short but pleasant. The sweetness from the nose and palate continues through the finish. The end of the finish leaves your mouth with a buttery texture. Finish Score: 3 pts Overall : I love this whisky. The sweet notes of caramel and vanilla is the backbone of this whisky. It keeps the entire experience together without making the whisky one dimensional....
