- Description
- William Larue Weller is Buffalo Trace's wheated bourbon from the Antique Collection, bottled in 2016 at 67.7% ABV. Cherry, chocolate, vanilla, coffee, and tobacco create a complex aromatic profile, with the wheated mashbill lending soft edges to the high proof. The palate is rich and warming despite the alcohol, with layered spice and sweetness. This rare bottling suits experienced bourbon drinkers who value bottled-in-bond character and wheated bourbon's subtle complexity.
