Final Notes: W.L. Weller 12 Year is made at the Buffalo Trace Distillery.  It uses wheat instead of rye during the distilling process, which makes it fairly unique.  This bourbon has bold complex flavor but does not kill your palate like many bourbons do.  This product is a steal at $30 and is cheaper depending on your market.  If you can find it, I say buy it immediately.
