Weller CYPB (Create Your Perfect Bourbon), 95 Proof
95 proof
8 years
Bourbon
Buffalo Trace
Nose
Cherry, baking spice, burnt peanuts (red candy coating), ethanol on the tail end. Nice cherry baking spice profile with a little bit of ethanol.
Palate
Cherry forward, burnt peanuts with sweetness and nuttiness, follows the nose closely. Sweet cherry with that red coating flavor from the burnt peanut candy.
Finish
Blue cotton candy, extended finish for 95 proof on a wheated bourbon. Stays with the finish longer than expected for the proof.
Above average
A solid wheated sipper at 95 proof with a pleasant cherry and spice profile that delivers a fair value at MSRP despite its unicorn status.
