Buffalo Trace Kosher Wheat Recipe Bourbon Whiskey

This is Weller's grain bill, aged seven years in barrels sold to a non-Jewish executive before Passover — Buffalo Trace's kosher wheated bourbon, made with the Chicago Rabbinical Council. Buffalo Trace releases three kosher whiskeys annually after Passover — a rye-recipe bourbon, this wheat-recipe bourbon, and a straight rye — in a program that began in 2020; the wheated mash is the same one behind Weller and Pappy Van Winkle, believed around 76% corn, 20% wheat, and a touch of malted barley, aged in specifically designated kosher barrels that were ceremonially sold before Passover in front of a cRc witness, then bottled at 94 proof after the lines were cleaned of any contact with non-kosher spirits. The Whiskey Shelf found it livelier and richer than expected: darker honey, apple, peach, orange peel, marshmallow, oak, cinnamon, and clove on the nose, with an Old Fashioned vibe, then preserved citrus, dried apricot and peach, cinnamon, and clove that add a ton of character — and, quietly, seven-year wheated Buffalo Trace at 47% is a specification Weller Special Reserve never gets. Honest note: the $40 retail is often marked up, because enthusiasts figured out what's in the bottle — this is the closest thing to a Weller with an age statement you can buy without a lottery ticket. Neat, or in the best Old Fashioned of the week. Kosher, wheated, seven years.
