William Larue Weller Bourbon For Sale Near Me

William Larue Weller Bourbon is a crown jewel of Buffalo Trace’s prestigious Antique Collection, released annually since 2005. This wheated, barrel-proof, uncut and unfiltered expression carries forward a legacy that began with William Larue Weller, the pioneer who replaced rye with wheat in mash bills in 1849.

The latest (2024) release clocks in at 125.8 proof, boasting an age of approximately 12 years and 6 months. It’s distilled from Buffalo Trace’s classic wheated mash, creating a rich, robust, and smooth bourbon that consistently earns critical acclaim.

Tasting Profile:

Nose: Cherry cobbler, caramel, sweet oak, molasses, leather, barrel char, light smoke
Palate: Dark raspberry, black cherry, chocolate, mixed nuts, tobacco, plum, spice
Finish: Long, creamy, spicy with tobacco, leather, butterscotch heat

Enthusiasts respect it as the flagship wheated, barrel-proof bourbon that defines this style—balanced yet powerful, nuanced yet enduring.
