W.L. Weller Special Reserve Bourbon
W.L. Weller Special Reserve is the original wheated bourbon. Instead of rye, it uses wheat as the secondary grain, which gives it a noticeably softer, smoother and sweeter profile than most bourbons. Bottled at 90 proof with a burnt-orange color, it is easy to sip neat and just as good in an Old Fashioned.
Weller is one of the most sought-after names in bourbon and often hard to find on store shelves, which makes Special Reserve a welcome gift for any bourbon drinker.
