About Old Medley 12Yr Disco
Old Medley 12Yr is a 12-year-old Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, bottled at 43% ABV (86 proof) by Charles Medley Distillery, though it's a sourced spirit from an unknown distillery, produced by Frank Lin Distillers Pro and available in 750ml for $49.01. What makes it special is its smooth, easy-drinking profile with surprising sweetness and subtle spice for its age, offering a creamy mouthfeel and balanced oak without overwhelming woodiness, despite being proofed down which tempers its maturity. It's ideal for bourbon enthusiasts seeking an affordable, everyday sipper or mixer that punches above its weight—solid behind the bar or for casual events—without the hype of premium bottles. In its category, it holds its own against Weller 12 in smoothness but lacks deeper age complexity, making it a reliable value pick over flashier $50 options, though some find it average or forgettable compared to bolder peers.
Tasting Notes
👃 Nose
The nose opens with sweet vanilla, caramel, honey graham cracker, and toffee, layered with oak, clove, allspice, and light fruits like pear and apple. Subtle rye spice emerges with aeration, alongside chocolate-covered cherry, roasted coffee, and hints of leather or peanut butter. Ethanol is present but fades, revealing toasted grain and bubble gum nuances.
👅 Palate
A soft, creamy, or thick oily mouthfeel surprises for the proof, delivering sweet honey, light fruits, caramel, vanilla, and butterscotch up front. Mild oak and rye spice build mid-palate with cinnamon, clove, sweet tobacco, and milk chocolate, maintaining balance without overpowering woodiness. It's full-bodied yet easy-drinking, with subtle mint or vegetal notes.
✨ Finish
Medium-short and mild, with returning clove, allspice, caramel, vanilla, and lingering rye spice or apple-pear sweetness. Some note a dry, thin drop-off with alcohol burn or bitter minerals, but it's generally smooth and enjoyable.
