Tasting Note Of Old Weller Antique

Aromas of luscious rich fruit, vanilla, and caramel rush forth from the glass. A hefty quantity of seasoned oak adds depth. Finally, a burst of cinnamon bark spice and undertones of black licorice interrupt the flavor. The first thing you'll notice as the bourbon rolls about in my mouth is how full-bodied and oily it is. The taste buds are gripped by cinnamon spice, followed by cherries, dark fruits, raw sugar, and old wood. The proof is manageable and perhaps a little subdued, as the flavors take center stage rather than any hint of fire. Dark fruit and wood contrast with a thick, weighty mouthfeel, and cinnamon is as attractive as fantastic. The conclusion starts with a crescendo of cinnamon spice. Cinnamon lingers in the background.
