William Larue Weller 2017 is a barrel-proof, uncut and unfiltered wheated bourbon from Buffalo Trace's Antique Collection. It swaps rye for wheat in the mashbill, the style W.L. Weller pioneered, which softens the spice and pushes caramel, toffee and dark fruit forward. It is a limited annual release aimed at collectors and experienced whiskey drinkers rather than casual sippers, and its high barrel proof rewards a splash of water. Against rye-heavy barrel-proof bourbons it reads sweeter and rounder, and against standard Weller expressions it is far more concentrated and intense.

Drinkers who have had the 2017 release describe it as a rich, sweet wheated bourbon with deep caramel and dark fruit, and praise how smooth it stays at barrel proof. The main complaints are heat when served neat and how hard the bottle is to find.
