William Larue Weller Bourbon Whiskey – 750 ml bottle

This is the 2021 release of William Larue Weller bottled at 125.3 proof and part of the Buffalo Trace Antique Collection. It’s part of the highly sought after and much prized range of expressions released annually from the Buffalo Trace Distillery. William Larue Weller is bottled straight out of the barrel without the addition of water and without filtering. The barrels for this whiskey were filled in 2009 at 114 proof. After more than 12 years of aging the whiskey is now 125.3 proof. The glass bottle chosen for William Larue Weller is designed to showcase the dark and rich whiskey colour. Each bottle is hand filled and labeled to ensure high quality craftmanship in every bottle. The expression is named in honour of one of bourbon’s early pioneers noted for developing wheated bourbon and as such this expression has a significant contribution from wheat in the mash bill. On the nose there’s aromas of creme brulee. To taste it has a full evolving and sophisticated flavour with notes of cherry and toasted graham crackers. The long finish is rich in coca herbs and oak. This whiskey is released only in very limited quantities each year and only a lucky few will ever get to taste this exceptionally rare bourbon whiskey.
