In stock
Old Weller Antique 107 is a high-proof wheated bourbon whiskey produced by Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky, bottled at 53.5% ABV (107 proof). Built on a wheat-forward mash bill instead of the traditional rye, this bourbon trades sharp spice for a rounder, sweeter profile packed with caramel, dark cherry, and warm baking spice — all while carrying enough proof to stand up to a big ice cube or a neat pour.
Old Weller Antique 107 carries the name and legacy of W.L. Weller, the man credited with pioneering the wheated bourbon style in the 1800s. Today it's crafted by Buffalo Trace Distillery, the same source behind the highly sought-after Pappy Van Winkle line, using that same wheated recipe. It's become a go-to bottle for bourbon fans chasing that "Pappy-adjacent" flavor profile without the Pappy-sized price tag or wait list — well, most days.
