William Larue Weller 2013 136.2 Proof 12 Year
Description
136.2 proof. 12 years. Uncut. Unfiltered. William Larue Weller 2013 — the highest-proof expression in the Wooden Cork deep-vintage WLW collection, surpassing the 2006 (129.9), 2010 (126.6), 2005 (121.9), and 2007 (117.9).
At 136.2 proof, the 2013 WLW approaches the territory of the most powerful recent WLW releases (2023 at 133.6). It represents the BTAC wheated program at peak pre-modern-scarcity conditions — 2013 was the year before BTAC allocation began to contract significantly, and surviving bottles from this vintage carry the weight of over a decade from primary distribution.
