W.L. Weller Millennium Bourbon Whiskey is an ultra-rare, collectible release that pays tribute to the legacy of one of Kentucky’s most iconic wheated bourbons. Bottled in celebration of the year 2000, this limited-edition expression features the signature smoothness of the Weller line, using wheat as the secondary grain in place of rye for a softer, sweeter flavor profile. Though details of its exact age and mash bill are closely guarded, expect rich notes of caramel, vanilla, oak, and warm baking spices, all wrapped in a luxurious, well-aged character. Available at Whiskey Caviar, this bottle is a true grail for bourbon collectors.
