This gives both expressions their signature smooth, sweet character. Weller Full Proof is widely regarded as one of the best value expressions of this coveted wheated style.How should I serve it?Best enjoyed neat or with a few drops of water to open up the crème brûlée and cherry complexity. A large ice cube also works beautifully for a slower, more gradual dilution.What size bottle is this?This listing is for a 750ml bottle of Weller Full Proof at 114 proof / 57% ABV.
