Eagle Rare 10 Year & Weller Special Reserve Bundle

This bundle pairs Eagle Rare 10 Year and Weller Special Reserve — two of the most sought-after allocated bourbons from Buffalo Trace Distillery representing two distinct mashbills: the high-rye single barrel and the wheated entry expression.

Both bottles come from Buffalo Trace in Frankfort, Kentucky, but use fundamentally different recipes. Eagle Rare 10 Year is a single barrel aged a minimum of ten years using the standard Buffalo Trace mashbill — drier, more complex, with leather and oak from the extended aging. Weller Special Reserve uses the wheated mashbill — the same recipe as the Pappy Van Winkle family — for a softer, more approachable character at 90 proof. Side by side they illustrate the mashbill difference more clearly than almost any other two-bottle pairing from the same distillery.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the mashbill difference between Eagle Rare and Weller Special Reserve?

Eagle Rare uses the standard Buffalo Trace mashbill — corn, rye, and malted barley — producing a drier, spicier profile at 90 proof with 10+ years of aging. Weller Special Reserve uses the wheated mashbill — corn, wheat, and malted barley — producing a softer, sweeter profile at 90 proof with no age statement. Same distillery, same proof, two very different characters.
