William Larue Weller pioneered the wheated bourbon recipe, famously substituting wheat for the traditional rye grain to create an exceptionally smooth and gentle sipping experience. Produced by the world-renowned Buffalo Trace Distillery, the W.L. Weller Wheated Bourbon Trifecta Bundle is the ultimate collector's set, bringing together three of the most sought-after and highly allocated bourbons on the market today. Whether you are a dedicated collector or a bourbon enthusiast looking to experience the full spectrum of the iconic Weller lineup, this premium trio delivers an unparalleled tasting journey.
What's Included in the Bundle
W.L. Weller Special Reserve: The foundational wheated bourbon that started it all. Bottled at a highly approachable 90 proof, this expression features a remarkably soft, sweet profile. Expect inviting tasting notes of sweet caramel, honey, butterscotch, and a gentle woodiness. It is incredibly versatile—perfect for sipping neat, pouring over ice, or elevating your favorite classic whiskey cocktail.
W.L. Weller Antique 107: A bold and complex step up in intensity. Bottled at a robust 107 proof, this expression offers well-balanced layers of sweet dark fruit, rich vanilla, and a distinctly spicy, warming finish that stands out beautifully despite the softer wheated mash bill.
W.L. Weller 12 Year: The crown jewel of the trio. Aged for a full 12 years—far longer than most wheated bourbons are left to mature—this incredibly rare 90-proof offering delivers exceptional depth and elegance. It boasts a deep bronze color, an inviting nose of toasted almond and rich vanilla, and a long, heavily oaked finish that has made it a legendary favorite among bourbon aficionados worldwide.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What is a "wheated" bourbon? Traditional bourbon uses a mash bill consisting of corn, malted barley, and rye. A wheated bourbon substitutes the rye grain entirely with wheat. This substitution removes the sharp, spicy "bite" typically associated with rye, resulting in a much smoother, sweeter, and softer flavor profile.
Why are Weller bourbons so hard to find? Weller is produced by the award-winning Buffalo Trace Distillery using the exact same wheated mash bill as the legendary Pappy Van Winkle line. Due to this prestigious pedigree, limited annual production, and massive global demand, all Weller expressions are highly allocated and exceptionally difficult to secure.
What is the proof of each bottle in this bundle? This bundle offers a fantastic range of proofs to explore the wheated profile: both the Special Reserve and the 12 Year are bottled at an approachable 90 proof (45% ABV), while the Antique 107 provides a bolder, richer experience at 107 proof (53.5% ABV).
