The annual release of the Buffalo Trace Antique Collection is a highly awaited affair for drinkers and collectors alike. It represents a cross-section of American Whiskeys spanning a wide range of ages, proofs, and styles, and the demand outpaces the supply greatly.

William Larue Weller is an uncut and unfiltered Wheated Bourbon. In its inception, it was called Weller 19 but was discontinued for five years and re-introduced as William Larue Weller in the Fall of 2005.

This second release was distilled in the Spring of 1982 and bottled in the Fall of 2001 at 19 years old and at 90 proof, making it one of only 4 released before the market demand would have them switch to the uncut versions at an average proof of 123.48.

A rich, complex, and smooth rarity indeed.

**Individual orders are limited to one item per person, as we wish to give everyone the opportunity to participate.

Bourbon was declared "The Official Spirit of America" by an Act of Congress signed by President Lyndon Johnson in 1964.
The Buffalo Trace Distillery was one of the few production facilities that was allowed to remain in operation during Prohibition for "medicinal purposes."
Bourbon matures quicker than Scotch due to higher temperatures in American warehouses.
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.
At any given time, there are more barrels of Bourbon in Kentucky than there are people. The population of the Bluegrass State is about 4.4 million. Today there are more than 5 million barrels of Bourbon sitting in the rick-houses of that Old Kentucky Home. That’s nearly 300 bottles of Bourbon per person, or about 60 gallons each.
Bourbon rules refer to manufacturing methods rather than location. Bourbon must be matured in new and charred American white oak casks for at least 2 years. If the bottle has no age statement, the Bourbon is at least 4 years old. No coloring or flavoring of any type is allowed, and the mash bill must contain at least 51% corn.
