Weller Full Proof Bourbon Whiskey\u003c\/strong\u003e is ideally enjoyed neat in a whiskey or Glencairn-style glass. Allowing the bourbon to rest for several minutes after pouring can help its vanilla, dark cherry, caramel, toasted oak, and dessert-like characteristics emerge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt \u003cstrong\u003e114 proof\u003c\/strong\u003e, adding a few drops of water can also be rewarding.
