W.L. Weller is one of the founding names in wheated bourbon, distilled at the historic Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky. Using a mash bill where wheat replaces the more typical rye, Weller produces a softer, sweeter style of bourbon that has become one of the most sought-after names in American whiskey.
Special Reserve is the entry point into the Weller range, offering the brand's signature smooth, wheated character in an approachable, everyday bottling. Bottled at 90 proof, it has enough depth for sipping neat, while its soft profile also suits serving over ice or in classic bourbon cocktails such as an Old Fashioned.
