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.

The 2021 release is a 125.3 Proof delicacy distilled in 2009 and matured in #4 charred new American oak from Warehouses K, L, D, Q, and C. You'll get a beautiful flavor profile with cherry and toasted Graham crackers on the palate and lush Crème Brûlée on the nose.

Pinhooking means purchasing and rearing a foal based on its pedigree and either selling it or turning it into a champ racing horse. The same idea is behind Pinhook Bourbon: they source young Whiskey to mature and blend it into a blue-ribbon sipping Bourbon.

Sure, Kentucky gets all the press when it comes to Bourbon. And with good reason—nearly 95% of it is produced there. But Bourbon can be made anywhere as long as it's within the United States. Just ask states with budding distilleries like Illinois and New York.
Bourbon must be made from a grain mixture that is at least 51% corn.
Bourbon Is a ''new barrel Spirit'': One of the legal requirements for Bourbon is that it only be aged in brand new oak charred barrels.
Bourbon was declared "The Official Spirit of America" by an Act of Congress signed by President Lyndon Johnson in 1964.
"Remember that iconic poster from World War II showing Rosie the Riveter as a patriotic American woman doing her part for the war effort? Well, hundreds of businesses did their part too, and the Bourbon distillers stepped right up with ‘em.

Distilleries all over Kentucky and Tennessee were re-tooled to distill fuel alcohol and ferment penicillin cultures to treat wounded soldiers."
