The 97 proof orange label “single barrel” of Weller straddles the line between the Special Reserve and Antique, and provides a different take on the normally bathed wheater. Though last year’s version left a little to be desired, this year’s is a real treat, brimming with Weller leather and spice on the nose, the palate exhibits sweet caramel, tropical fruit, and a chewy nougat that’s just the best bourbon “candy” you’ll ever taste. Orange label 2023/2024 is dynomite!
