I personally love it. It's different. If you're going into it wanting a typical bourbon experience, you're not going to find it.

For my money, I like the WLW 7/SR more than the 12. The 12 is a beautiful and thoroughly enjoyable bourbon, but something about the 7 just hits all the right notes for me.
To be fair, I'm that way with a lot of whiskeys. I like some younger stuff because it has more of the character of that particular distillery. I'd take the Laphroaig 10 or QC over the 15/18 any day. Yes, they smooth out over time but sometimes I think they lose a little of their charm.
