William Larue Weller 2025 (129 Proof): The Original Wheated Bourbon, Uncut & Unfiltered
The most anticipated wheated bourbon of the year is here. Nestor Liquor, your preferred partner for the world's most sought-after whiskeys, is honored to present the William Larue Weller 2025 Release from the Buffalo Trace Antique Collection (BTAC). This is the original "wheater," presented as it was meant to be: uncut, unfiltered, and straight from the barrel.
This 2025 release is a stunning example of mature wheated bourbon. It is a blend of exceptional barrels distilled in the winters of 2010, 2011, and 2013, and bottled in the fall of 2025 after more than 12 years of patient maturation in the Kentucky elements.
By replacing the traditional rye grain with wheat, this bourbon offers a much softer, smoother, and sweeter profile, even at its staggering 129 proof (64.5% ABV). This release is renowned for its rich, complex, and dessert-like notes, a true benchmark for all barrel-proof wheated bourbons.
Tasting Notes:
Nose: A rich and inviting bouquet of deep caramel, vanilla bean, and baked bread pudding. As it opens, sophisticated notes of dark cherry, toasted almonds, and sweet, aged oak emerge.
Palate: A velvety, full-bodied, and surprisingly soft palate for its proof. Waves of buttery toffee, maple syrup, and dark chocolate are perfectly balanced by a gentle warmth and notes of baked apples and cinnamon.
Finish: An exceptionally long, warm, and smooth finish. The sweet dessert notes of crème brûlée and vanilla linger, with a final, satisfying hint of toasted oak and spice.
This is the pinnacle of the Weller line and a true collector's item. As your trusted retailer, Nestor Liquor is your premier destination for this highly allocated BTAC masterpiece. Add this legendary bottle to your collection.
