W.L. Weller is Buffalo Trace's wheated bourbon range, built around a mash bill that substitutes the rye found in many bourbons with wheat, creating a softer, rounder style characterized by vanilla, caramel, sweet fruit and gentle spice. Named after the nineteenth-century whiskey merchant William Larue Weller, the brand has become one of the most sought-after names in modern American whiskey, valued both for its accessible house style and for the scarcity that now surrounds many of its bottlings.
The core range stretches well beyond the original trio of Special Reserve, Antique 107 and 12 Year Old. Today, Weller also includes Full Proof, Single Barrel and C.Y.P.B., while William Larue Weller appears separately as the barrel-proof, uncut and unfiltered annual wheated bourbon in Buffalo Trace's Antique Collection. Together they demonstrate the versatility of the style, from the easy-going sweetness of Special Reserve to the richer structure of Antique 107 and the depth and intensity of the annual William Larue Weller release.
What connects the range is a distinctive kind of bourbon character: generous, polished and full-flavoured, but rarely aggressive. That balance has helped make Weller one of the most influential wheated bourbon names in the market and a benchmark for drinkers drawn to bourbon with breadth, sweetness and maturity rather than sharp spice alone.
