(International Orders may incur country-specific Customs Duties and Taxes) Origins & Craftsmanship Weller Millennium belongs to the lineage of wheated bourbons associated with the historic W.L. Weller brand, a precursor to many of today’s most sought-after wheated expressions. Produced using the classic wheated mash bill—replacing rye with soft winter wheat—it delivers a rounder, sweeter flavor profile compared to traditional rye-based bourbons. While specific release details vary by bottling year and market, Millennium editions are typically special or commemorative offerings, selected for their maturity, balance, and elevated character. Aging in new charred American oak develops layers of caramel, vanilla, and rich wood spice, while the lower-rye mash bill keeps the whiskey exceptionally smooth and approachable. The result is a bourbon that blends heritage, rarity, and craftsmanship into a bottle designed for savoring or cellaring.
