Weller Limited Releases

This Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey is made with Emmer wheat, an ancient Egyptian grain rarely seen in modern stills. The limited release is named after William Larue Weller's grandfather, the first member of the Weller family to distill in Kentucky.   This is an extremely limited and highly allocated release from Buffalo Trace

An all-star collection of Buffalo Trace's best Weller expressions. The bundle contains all 750ml bottles:

• Weller Single Barrel
• Weller CYPB Weller
• Full Proof Weller 
• 12 year Old Weller Antique
• Weller Special Reserve

A wheated recipe bourbon, aged on the highest warehouse floors for eight years and bottled at 95 proof. A light aroma with citrus and oak on the nose. The palate is well rounded and balanced, with a medium-long finish and hints of vanilla. It is the bourbon which best fit into what over 100,200 bourbon drinkers voted most for over two years – a wheated bourbon recipe

Weller Full Proof Bourbon is a wheated bourbon distilled at the Buffalo Trace Distillery. Bottled at 114 proof, this is the same proof as when the spirit entered the barrel for maturation. The Kentucky straight bourbon is bottled without chill filtration. Baked apples and vanilla are showcased on the nose, along with fiery cinnamon. The palate offers vanilla bean, baking spices, sour cherries, and cassia bark. The finish turns to the drier and more medicinal side, with spearmint, tannic oak, leather, and milk chocolate truffles. Quite sippable despite the high proof, with a pleasantly lengthy finish.

Expect distinct, full-bodied flavor in the celebrated tradition of Weller's wheated bourbon. Weller Single Barrel has a nose of cherry and mint, fading to vanilla. Caramel and baking spices with hints of cocoa explode on the palate, with a finish of cinnamon, coffee, and a hint of pepper.

W.L. Weller Special Reserve (2025 Gold Foil Edition)

The Original Wheated Bourbon – Elevated for 2025

Known as the "Original Wheated Bourbon," W.L. Weller Special Reserve replaces the traditional rye grain with wheat to create an exceptionally soft, smooth, and approachable profile. This 2025 Gold Foil Edition takes that heritage and wraps it in a stunning, limited-edition presentation.

Featuring the iconic gold foil neck wrap, a design cue historically reserved for the most prestigious "dusty" bottles produced at the old Stitzel-Weller distillery this 2025 release is as much a centerpiece for your display as it is a world-class sipper.

Why the "Gold Foil" Matters to Bourbon Collectors

• Nostalgic Heritage: The gold foil aesthetic is a direct tribute to the high-end Weller bottlings of the 1970s and 80s, bridging the gap between modern Buffalo Trace excellence and the "Old School" Weller legacy.

• Limited 2025 Allocation: Unlike the standard Special Reserve, the Gold Foil release is produced in significantly lower quantities, making it a high-velocity target for "Weller Completionists."

• The Buffalo Trace Pedigree: Distilled at the world's most awarded distillery (DSP-KY-113) using the same wheated mash bill as Pappy Van Winkle, this bottle offers a 90-proof masterclass in balance and sweetness.

Tasting Notes: The Gold Standard Profile

• Nose: A warm, inviting bouquet of honey, butterscotch, and soft floral notes, underpinned by a hint of toasted oak.

  Palate: Remarkable creaminess on the tongue. Expect flavors of caramel apple, vanilla bean, and a delicate honeyed sweetness that only a 10-year-plus aging cycle (relative to standard batches) can provide.

• Finish: Exceptionally clean and calm. It leaves a lingering sweetness with a "burnt orange" citrus zest that defines the 2025 harvest.
