W.L. Weller

The brand offers several expressions, including W.L. Weller Special Reserve, Antique 107, and the highly sought-after W.L. Weller 12 Year. Each expression varies in age and proof, but all share the signature softness and sweetness that comes from the use of wheat in the mash bill. The Special Reserve is known for its approachable profile with notes of honey, caramel, and vanilla, while Antique 107 is more robust, with bold flavors of dark fruit, spice, and oak. The 12 Year offers deeper complexity, with layers of toffee, leather, and dried fruit, balanced by oak and vanilla.

W.L. Weller bourbons generally have an alcohol content ranging from 45% to 53.5% (depending on the expression) and are enjoyed both neat and in cocktails, though many prefer sipping these bourbons to appreciate their complexity. The brand's legacy and connection to other iconic bourbons, like Pappy Van Winkle, contribute to its status as one of the most coveted wheated bourbons in the market.
