Product Details
About This Bottle
W.L. Weller Special Reserve is the original wheated bourbon, the expression that first substituted wheat for rye as the secondary grain in a Kentucky straight bourbon mash bill, producing the soft, approachable character that defines the entire Weller and Van Winkle family of bourbons. Widely known among collectors as the "green label" Weller for its distinctive packaging, Special Reserve is the entry point of the W.L. Weller lineup, matured roughly seven years at Buffalo Trace's historic Kentucky rickhouses.
Specs
- Distillery: Buffalo Trace, Frankfort, Kentucky
- Mash Bill: Wheated (wheat as secondary grain instead of rye)
- Aging: Approximately 7 years
- ABV: 45% (90 Proof)
- Size: 1L
Tasting Notes
- Nose: Sweet caramel with honey and soft vanilla
- Palate: Honey, butterscotch, and soft woodiness, with a touch of oak and little to no rye spice
- Finish: Smooth, with a sweet honeysuckle flair
A Wine Enthusiast Best Buy, W.L. Weller Special Reserve is the softest and most approachable expression in the Weller lineup, gentle enough for cocktails yet flavorful enough to sip neat, and a natural entry point before stepping up to Antique 107 or the 12 Year.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does W.L. Weller Special Reserve taste like?
Sweet caramel and honey on the nose, with butterscotch and soft woodiness on the palate, finishing smooth with honeysuckle sweetness.
Why is it called "green label" Weller?
Collectors use that nickname because of its distinctive green label, distinguishing it from Antique 107's red label and the 12 Year's blue label.
How does this compare to the rest of the Weller lineup?
It's the entry point at 90 proof with the softest profile; Antique 107 is bolder and higher proof, the 12 Year adds significant age, and Full Proof is bottled at barrel entry strength.

Common Questions
When will this ship?
Orders placed Monday through Thursday are processed and ship within 3–5 business days. Orders placed Friday through Sunday are processed the following Monday. We ship from Coronado, CA via UPS, and tracking is emailed as soon as your order leaves.
Which states do you ship to?
We ship to most US states, but not to Tennessee, US territories, or APO/FPO addresses. Enter your ZIP code at checkout and we will confirm delivery to your address before you pay. Not sure? Email support@estatesliquor.com before ordering.
Do I have to sign for delivery?
Yes. An adult 21 or older with valid government-issued ID must be present to sign. UPS will not leave alcohol unattended.
What happens if I miss the delivery?
UPS attempts delivery up to three times. If all three attempts fail, the package is returned to us and re-shipping costs are the customer's responsibility.
How is the bottle packed?
Wrapped, braced, and boxed in molded inserts built for glass — the same packing whether it is a $35 bottle or a $2,000 one.

All sales are final. Alcohol is a consumable product, so we cannot accept returns based on taste preference. If a bottle arrives broken or we ship the wrong item, contact us within 48 hours of delivery with your order number and a photo, and we will replace or refund it at no cost.
What if my order is lost or damaged in transit?
