2019 William Larue Weller Barrel Proof Bourbon | Buffalo Trace Antique Collection | 750ml

The 2019 William Larue Weller Barrel Proof Bourbon 750ml is one of the most collectible releases in the Buffalo Trace Antique Collection. Moreover, this limited annual bottling honors William Larue Weller, an important name in wheated bourbon history.

This 2019 edition is bottled at 128 proof, or 64% ABV. In addition, the release was aged for about 12.5 years, which adds depth, maturity, and strong collector value. As a result, this bottle appeals to serious bourbon collectors, Weller fans, and buyers searching for rare Buffalo Trace Antique Collection whiskey.

William Larue Weller uses Buffalo Trace’s wheated bourbon style. Therefore, it delivers richness, depth, and a softer grain profile than rye-forward bourbons. This bottle may show caramel, vanilla, dark cherry, chocolate, brown sugar, toasted oak, maple, leather, tobacco, baking spice, and dried fruit.

The barrel proof strength adds power and texture. However, the wheated profile keeps the whiskey layered, polished, and deeply expressive. In addition, the black label, handwritten proof detail, and BTAC status give this bottle excellent display value.

The 2019 William Larue Weller Barrel Proof Bourbon is a standout choice for collectors, luxury gifting, private bars, whiskey tastings, and rare bottle displays. Finally, its 2019 release status, 128 proof strength, Buffalo Trace heritage, and limited availability make it one of the most sought-after American whiskeys from that year.
