Weller Special Reserve is the entry bottle in the Weller range, a wheated bourbon from the Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky, bottled at 45% (90 proof).
Like every Weller, it uses wheat instead of rye as its second grain, the recipe credited to William Larue Weller in the 1800s. That makes it soft and sweet, with caramel on the nose and honey, butterscotch and gentle wood on the palate, finishing smooth with a touch of honeysuckle. It is hard to find for an entry bottle, because demand for Weller far exceeds supply.
For an affordable, easy-drinking wheated bourbon, Weller Special Reserve is our pick. For more strength, choose Weller Antique 107; for more age, see Weller 12 Year.
Sip it neat or on the rocks, or use it in an Old Fashioned.
We carry it in the 750ml size, in limited quantities. More bottles are under bourbon, and the rest of our whiskey is a click away. Pick it up at our Brooklyn store or get same-day delivery across NYC.
