Daniel Weller Spelt Wheat Recipe
Bourbon
Daniel Weller // Kentucky, USA
Daniel Weller Spelt Wheat Recipe Bourbon is the second release in the experimental Daniel Weller series from Buffalo Trace Distillery, which explores how individual wheat varietals shape the character of Weller, the original wheated bourbon. This expression uses spelt wheat in place of rye as the secondary grain in the mash bill. Aged for 10 years and bottled at 94 proof (47% ABV), the release focuses on grain variation rather than barrel finishing.
Each bottle features a compass-inspired stopper tied to Daniel Weller’s Kentucky farm. Available in limited quantities beginning March 2026 (SRP $549.99).

Tasting Notes
"Open sesame! Aromas and flavors of toasted sesame seeds and sesame butter intertwine with rich chocolate, apple compote, and sweet spices. The nutty, rich, and creamy mix takes on some tropical notes of toasted coconut and banana, with a smoked meaty flavor on the back palate. The flavor profile is like chocolate chip banana and apple cake with swirls of tahini with a bourbon charred oak kick. "
