I haven’t looked for Weller in a while. Last bottle I bought was Antique and it was under $40, so it was a long time ago.

Unless things have really changed, finding Weller 12 and Weller FP ain’t common.

That price on the Willet fancy bottle (my name for it) is outrageous. That may be what it’s bringing now, but there’s no way I’d be interested at that price.

One hundred percent correct.

It's a good selection. And $80 for a Weller 12 is worth it to buy a bottle or two to share with guests. But man, personally I'm knocking out cheap shìt and loving it these days.

Gimme some Early Times BIB, JTS Brown BIB, JW Dant BiB or Evan Williams BIB for my personal sipping whiskey. It won't wow anybody that's drinking based on social media clicks, but damn fine bourbon for under $30 a liter pretty much anywhere you can find it...

Put it like this, for the Landman TV show fans:

If Billy Bob Thornton comes over you pour him a glass of the Weller 12. If Sam Elliot comes over you pour him the Early Times BIB. If Ali Larter comes over, you break out the Willet and hope that bottle goes in a hole somewhere when you're done with it ... Even if it's yours. We ain't judging.

Some reviews:

Willett bourbons are known for their complexity and depth of flavour. Here are some general tasting notes you might encounter:
  • Nose: Often features aromas of caramel, vanilla, oak, and subtle fruitiness.
  • Palate: Expect a rich, full-bodied mouthfeel with flavours of caramel, brown sugar, baking spices, and sometimes dark fruits.
  • Finish: Typically long and warming, with lingering notes of oak, spice, and sweetness.
Remember, as with many craft distilleries, product details such as age statements and proofs can vary between batches and over time. It’s always best to check current product information for the most up-to-date details on specific Willett offerings.
