WL Weller CYPB Wheated Bourbon

In November 2015 Buffalo Trace launched their “Craft Your Perfect Bourbon” website, inviting fans to theory craft a bourbon from start to finish, choose your warehouse, age and proof at bottling. Of the 100,239 people who took part in this fun little experiment, the vast majority settled on the same criteria: a wheated bourbon aged for 8 years at the top of the warehouse and bottled between 90 and 99 proof. Thousands chose wheated bourbon, just like William Larue Weller did years ago.

Given the clear and overwhelming demand for such a product, Buffalo Trace went ahead and created the Weller Craft Your Perfect Bourbon, or C.Y.P.B. for short, their first new Weller product since acquiring the brand.

“This limited edition whiskey is the result of the overwhelming consensus—a wheated recipe bourbon, aged on the highest warehouse floors for eight years and bottled at 95 proof.” —Buffalo Trace Distillery

Tasting Notes:

A light aroma with citrus and oak on the nose. The palate is well rounded and balanced, with a medium-long finish and hints of vanilla.
