WELLER MILLENNIUM 2026
KENTUCKY, USA
Buffalo Trace has taken last year's Millennium release and decided that, going forward, bigger is definitely better.
Master blender Drew Mayville has given this edition in the series an all-new one time only wheat mash bill, and bottled it (uncut and unfiltered) at 125 proof instead of the previous 99.
Crafted from a blend of 4 of whiskeys distilled at the turn of the millennium from some of the oldest Stock at Buffalo Trace, the liquid draws from four vintages: with 2001 contributing 3%, 2003 dominating at 50%, 2005 chipping in 40%, and 2006 adding 7%.
This is a big bourbon, a bourbon to get lost in, a bourbon to take you places.
We love the way it sets a base of butterscotch, rich and broad, and opens out into stone fruit and hints of oak and even, faintly, in the background, a touch of smoke.
At 125 proof, it swaggers, for sure, but it’s so integrated and nuanced that you don’t feel it.
The presentation carries on Buffalo Trace’s much remarked-upon flair for drama: a hand-blown crystal decanter, an illuminated display case, LED lights that activate on opening.
Theater, to be sure ... but theater in service of something that’s legitimately worth it.
Get yours today; this will become an immediate fixture of your bar cart … though I doubt that it stays there for long.
And remember, we only buy and source from the distillery, to ensure that your bottles arrive as they should, and as you deserve: with pristine provenance guaranteed. Secure yours today!
