Nice notes, Ruben. I just reserved a bottle of the 2009 release and look forward to trying it.

One minor correction…there IS barley in WLW. On the official distillery fact sheet, they list the grains as:
Large Grain: Kentucky corn, distiller’s grade #1 and #2
Small Grain: North Dakota Wheat
Finish Grain: North Dakota Malted Barley

They don’t say what the percentages are, but most wheated and rye bourbons do contain all three. Another wheated bourbon, Maker’s Mark, is said to contain around 75% corn, 15% wheat, and 10% barley.

Thanks,
Jeff

[...] Nicely balanced and smoother than most other bourbons at this strength (e.g. Buffalo Trace or William Larue Weller). [...]
