William Larue Weller was a 19th century Kentucky distiller who produced the first Straight Bourbon using wheat instead of rye. This eponymous Buffalo Trace brand celebrates the innovative lad with a special annual release of uncut and unfiltered wheated Bourbon. It's a wonderful collectible and a lovely sip if you dare open it.

Distilled in 1993 and released in 2005, this particular release is made from Kentucky corn, North Dakota wheat and malted barley. It’s a big and pleasantly sweet Bourbon that’s packed with pastry flavors, creamy vanilla, and lots of spicy notes that flourish on the complex palate, developed from the 12 years spent in oak. The textbook definition of masterpiece.
