OLD RIP VAN WINKLE 10
1 × $720.00
Subtotal: $720.00
Weller Antique 107 Bourbon is another widely acclaimed bourbon from the all “wheated” W.L. Weller line, the Antique 107 shares the same mashbill, warehouse, and proof as the stunning Old Rip Van Winkle 10 year. This is a non-age-statement iteration of Old Weller’s Antique 107, replacing the now-discontinued with-age varieties, however, it is estimated to be around the 7-year-old mark, with a mature and refined flavor profile. Known worldwide as one of the best value bourbons on the planet, the Weller Antique 107 punches well above its weight with its robust strength and deep complexity second to none.
A wheated bourbon with a full-bodied flavor and a balanced palate. Old Weller Antique is bottled at 107 proof, offering a complex taste and bold finish. It’s certainly a recognizable member of the Weller label, with its own unique characteristics to compliment the high proof.
Tasting Notes
Nose
There’s a lot of spice that immediately hits your nose, with subtle hints of vanilla, caramel and butterscotch. Deeper, the nose has whiffs of leather and nutmeg with trace amounts of cinnamon. Most surprising is the amount of oak that comes off of it for a relatively young bourbon. Smell long enough and faint sweet barbecue notes pull out.
Taste
It comes off a bit thin at first but then a tidal wave of flavor and heat hit that even affects your nose. It feels like you’re sipping a barrel proof bourbon without the high proof attached to it. It has moments of sweetness mixed in that is countered with an alcohol bite. A hot and full flavor affair.
Finish
This where the oak shines through. A delicious combination of char and spice that doesn’t overstay its welcome. The wheat sweetness is still present, but a measured blast of heat will let you know it’s there as it goes down. The semi dry finish isn’t overly complex but it has a decent amount of weight to it that helps balance the whole package.
