William Larue Weller Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey 2018

Distillery Notes:

“Uncut and unfiltered, this hand-bottled bourbon is barrel proof. Weller substitutes wheat for the traditional rye grain, a production method pioneered by W.L. Weller.” Distilled: Winter of 2006 Warehouse: C, I, K, L, M, & Q Floor: 2, 3, 4, and 5 Tasting Comments: Dried fruit, fig, caramelized vanilla.”

The William Larue Weller line was introduced in 2000 as the W.L. Weller 19 year old, however it was removed again in 2003 due to the Sazerac partnership with Old Rip Van Winkle, which required primary access to the distillery ageing wheated bourbon. It returned as the younger William Larue Weller in 2005, and has been bottled annually since, as part of the Buffalo Trace Antique Collection, a selection of whiskies collated and in some cases created to pay homage to the history of the company and its brands.
