It was first created in 2005 to commemorate the 400th anniversary of the handing over of the Elixir de Longue vie manuscript by Marshal d'Estrées to the Chartreux de Vauvert. This liqueur is inspired by the “liqueur de santé” or “Elixir de table” developed at the beginning of the 19th century, which in 1840 became the Chartreuse Verte.

Old Swagger 12-Year Straight Rye (4th Release)

A Masterclass in Maturity. The Boldest Chapter of the Rising Tide.

In an era of young, high-speed spirits, Old Swagger 12-Year stands as a testament to the power of patience. This 4th Release from Rising Tide Spirits is a rare bird: a 12-year-old Straight Rye Whiskey that carries the prestige.

This is rye whiskey with a "swagger" that only comes from a decade-plus of dancing with the wood.

The Profile: Power, Spice, and Structural Depth

While younger ryes are often characterized by "green" herbal notes, this 12-year expression has moved into the realm of dark sugars and deep spice. The extra time in the barrel has rounded the rye’s natural "bite" into a sophisticated, warming complexity.

• Nose: An immediate, aromatic invitation of salted caramel, dark chocolate-covered ginger, and aged oak. Secondary notes of mint leaf, clove, and a hint of dusty warehouse funk emerge as it breathes.

• Palate: Full-bodied and authoritative. Expect a rich, oily texture that delivers waves of maple syrup, toasted rye bread, and black pepper. Mid-palate, you'll find a delightful transition into stone fruit—think dried apricots and cherry skins.

• Finish: Long, dry, and triumphant. The "Bottled-in-Bond" 100 proof provides the perfect heat, tapering into cinnamon stick, cigar box, and a lingering sweetness of vanilla bean.

The 4th Release Distinction

The 4th Release of Old Swagger represents the pinnacle of Rising Tide's sourcing and curation. At 12 years old, the rye grain has fully integrated with the charred American oak, creating an experience that rivals the most sought-after ryes in the country. It is a "pour-for-the-occasion" whiskey that commands respect from the first sip to the last.

Product Specifications:

• Age: 12 Years Old

• Classification: Straight Rye Whiskey

• Proof: 110.8 Proof (55% ABV)

• Release: 4th Limited Release

• Producer: Rising Tide Spirits

Aged predominantly in umeshu (Japanese apricot liqueur) casks, Hibiki is soft, spicy, round and smooth with no heat from ethanol and barely any tannin. There are notes of dark fruit compote, lapin cherry, and the sweetest kind of cigar smoke, more of a vanilla e-cigarette. The palate is buttery, round and soft; the finish long.

*May be 700 or 750ml Bottling*

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.

*Please Note: This is a 50ml bottle*

Bourbon Cream is handcrafted using Buffalo Trace Kentucky Straight Bourbon, making it a perfect marriage of rich delicious cream and smooth Kentucky bourbon.

You can enjoy it chilled, on the rocks, or pour it in a cup of coffee for an indulgent after dinner treat. Try the Buffalo Float- “the adult root beer float.”

PRODUCER'S NOTES: "This wonderful bourbon is bottled as close to barrel proof as possible. We add just a splash of our Kentucky limestone well water when we empty the barrels for bottling. Thus, this whiskey is as smooth as any you will find. The more water you add to whiskey from its natural barrel proof to its bottle proof, the harsher it becomes. This 107 barrel proof seems to be just right."

In 1893, when he was 18 years old, Julian "Pappy" Van Winkle Sr. began working as a salesman for the liquor wholesaler, W.L. Weller & Sons. Fifteen years later, he and another Weller salesman bought the firm. In 1910 they acquired the A. Ph. Stitzel Distillery in Louisville, Kentucky, which had started as a sour mash whiskey distillery in 1872.

The Stitzel Distillery supplied much of the whiskey sold by the Weller wholesale firm. The consolidation coincided with prohibition, during which time the Stitzel-Weller firm was licensed by the government to produce whiskey for medicinal purposes. One of their labels that was introduced on the market just before prohibition was Old Rip Van Winkle. After prohibition, the brand was not reintroduced until after 1972 when the Stitzel-Weller distillery and its current brand names (including W. L. Weller, Old Fitzgerald, Rebel Yell, and Cabin Still) were sold to other companies.The only brand name the Van Winkle family had kept the rights to was the pre-prohibition brand Old Rip Van Winkle.

The Stitzel-Weller Distillery was opened on the day of the Kentucky Derby in 1935, just outside Louisville in Shively, Kentucky. At the time of his death in 1965 at the age of 89, Pappy Van Winkle was the oldest active distiller in the nation. A photo of him lighting a cigar graces the bottle's label.

Sometime after the Stitzel-Weller distillery was sold in 1972, Julian Van Winkle, Jr. resurrected the pre-prohibition Old Rip Van Winkle brand and initially used old whiskey stocks from the distillery for its bottlings. Julian Jr. died in 1981 and Julian Van Winkle, III (Pappy's grandson) took over the Old Rip Van Winkle Distillery company.

After the initial sale in 1972, the Stitzel-Weller distillery was eventually closed completely in 1991.

Since 2002, the Van Winkle brands have been distilled and bottled by the Sazerac Company at the Buffalo Trace Distillery as a joint venture with the Old Rip Van Winkle Distillery company.

In 2013, Julian Preston Van Winkle III, said the 2013 bottlings of the 23-year brand expression "may be the last of its kind", since at that point there was very little left of the aging stock from the Stitzel-Weller distillery (although he said the brand would not be discontinued). The makers say that they do not want to boost production, as there is considerable long-term risk, and they do not want to be left holding copious quantities of unsaleable bourbon should tastes, fashions or circumstances change.

W.L. Weller Special Reserve is the green-label introduction to Buffalo Trace Distillery's wheated Weller family — a Kentucky straight bourbon bottled at 90 proof, and quite possibly the most famous "starter bottle" in all of allocated whiskey.

Here's the open secret that built the legend: Weller is widely understood to share Buffalo Trace's wheated mash bill with the Van Winkle line. Buffalo Trace never publishes its recipes, but ask anyone who's spent a Saturday bottle-hunting — what you're holding is the same wheated DNA that goes into Pappy, just younger and considerably easier to actually pour. The name predates all of it: William Larue Weller was selling whiskey in Louisville by 1849, and the label has carried the claim of "the original wheated bourbon" for generations — lore it wears proudly, even if no one alive can notarize it. The brand later passed through Stitzel-Weller, the distillery Pappy Van Winkle himself built, before Sazerac brought it home to Buffalo Trace in 1999. Longtime fans still remember when the label wore a 7-year age statement — it quietly came off years ago, and those age-stated dusties have become minor collectibles in their own right. Exactly the kind of trivia that wins bourbon night.

In the glass, wheat does what wheat does: it softens everything. Honey and vanilla custard up front, caramel and soft cherry underneath, and a warm, gentle finish with none of rye's pepper — the profile people fall in love with first and argue about forever.

The green label is also the one that vanishes the moment it lands — and that's where we come in. Every bottle here comes from authenticated and verified sources, is packed white-glove, and in most cases ships the same day. And for the treasure hunters: Stitzel-Weller-era Weller is exactly the kind of unicorn our vintage collection exists to chase — those bottles surface when we hunt them down.

Common questions

Is W.L. Weller the same as Pappy Van Winkle?
Same distillery and, by every credible account, the same wheated mash bill — but a different brand with far less barrel time. The Van Winkle bottlings are older and drawn from choicer barrels; Weller Special Reserve is the youngest, most attainable expression of that shared recipe, which is why the community nicknamed the Weller line "Poor Man's Pappy."

Why is Weller Special Reserve so hard to find at retail?
The Pappy connection turned an everyday wheater into an allocated one. Demand for anything wearing the Weller name now far outruns supply, and most stores receive only a handful of green-label bottles at a time — often spoken for before they reach a shelf.

What's the difference between Weller Special Reserve and Weller Antique 107?
Proof, mostly. Special Reserve is the softer 90-proof introduction; Antique 107 runs the same wheated recipe at a bigger, bolder 107. Longtime forum tradition holds that blending the two approximates a certain 15-year bottle — a recipe passed around like a secret handshake.

Is Weller Special Reserve a good gift?
One of the best entry points in bourbon gifting — recognizable enough to impress an enthusiast, gentle enough for a newcomer.
