W.L. Weller 18 Year Straight Wheat Whiskey

Say hello to W.L. Weller 18 Year Straight Wheat Whiskey—the brand’s most refined, age-stated debut and a true milestone in wheated whiskey craftsmanship. This ultra-aged expression, crafted at Buffalo Trace, stands as the oldest whiskey ever released under the Weller label and the first to spotlight wheat as the dominant secondary grain in the mash bill.

Housed in a handcrafted crystal decanter and topped with an intricately etched “W” crystal stopper, each 700 ml bottle evokes elegance and reverence for tradition. 

Bottled at a balanced 90 proof (45% ABV), this Kentucky straight wheat whiskey masterfully blends two decades of aging with gentle complexity. It pours gracefully, like a golden memory infused with nuance and poise.

This isn't just whiskey—it’s a legacy revived. Layered with aged fruit, tobacco, crisp green pear, and warm baking spice, it’s smooth enough to sip solo yet rich enough to stir curiosity in every glass.

Nose: A soft blend of aged fruits and tobacco, like the gentle wisdom of a library in bloom.

Palate: Warm baking spice and crisp green pear form the base; a balanced harmony of fruit and subtle pepper.

Finish: Long and graceful—clean, poised, a whisper of warmth that fades with delight 

Pair with pear tarte tatin or walnut dacquoise to echo its fruit and nut warmth. Enjoy alongside aged Comté or honey-drizzled goat cheese to mirror its balance. Dare to pair it with pear-and-spice éclair—its sophistication elevates dessert into poetry.
