William Larue Weller Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey - 2025 Release (750ml, 129 Proof)

Uncut. Unfiltered. A wheated bourbon icon.
The William Larue Weller is the wheated bourbon expression of Buffalo Trace's Antique Collection, released annually in the fall. The 2025 edition is bottled at a fiery 129 proof (64.5% ABV), offering the raw intensity of barrel-strength whiskey. Aged in new American oak and crafted with a wheat mashbill instead of rye, this bourbon delivers a softer, sweeter profile while retaining immense power and complexity. Non-chill filtered and limited in allocation, it remains one of the most sought-after bourbons in the world.
