Weller Antique 107 Cigar Cut: Crème Brûlée, Dark Cherry & 107 Proof

Is 107 proof the sweet spot for bourbon?

This week we're opening Weller Antique 107 – The Cigar Cut, a special single barrel selected for Australia by The Drink Society.

And it's an absolute beauty.

We're finding crème brûlée, burnt sugar, buttery caramel, rich cherry, dark chocolate and even a little freeze-dried raspberry, all wrapped up in a wonderfully creamy mouthfeel.

We explore what makes Weller's wheated bourbon so appealing, the details behind this particular seven-year-and-five-month-old barrel, and why Antique 107 has become such a beloved bottle for so many bourbon drinkers.

We also discuss the increasing availability of Buffalo Trace products in Australia, the excitement of local barrel picks, and which distillery we'd choose if we could select our own single barrel.

And H is already asking for another bottle.
