W.L. Weller

Daniel Weller

Named for the pioneering forefather of the Weller family — grandfather to William Larue Weller — this experimental expression asks a patient question: what does a different strain of wheat give to bourbon? The answer took nearly twelve years in oak.

Tasting Notes

Fresh, nutty, quietly experimental.

Fresh and nutty on the nose — orange zest, hazelnut, cinnamon and caramel — opening onto a well-rounded palate of bold oak, sweet honey and orchard fruits. The finish is complex and oak-forward, complemented by baking spice and a trace of leather.

About the Marque

W.L. Weller

William Larue Weller, born in 1825, was a pioneering Kentucky whiskey merchant and distiller. In 1849 he founded W.L. Weller & Brothers — later W.L. Weller & Sons — and made a decision that would quietly reshape bourbon: he replaced the rye in his mash bill with wheat, creating a softer, smoother style that set his whiskeys apart from everything around them.
