Tasting Notes

Weller Antique 107 is a wheated bourbon from Buffalo Trace’s famed Weller line, bottled at 107 proof. The nose opens with rich aromas of caramel, vanilla, and honey, layered with cinnamon, baking spice, and a touch of oak. On the palate, it is bold and full-bodied, offering flavors of toffee, dark fruit, roasted nuts, and subtle cocoa balanced by sweet oak and warm spice. The higher proof adds intensity while the wheated mashbill keeps the mouthfeel smooth and rounded. The finish is long, warming, and powerful, leaving lingering notes of caramel, spice, and toasted oak.
