The Weller Special Reserve, Sazerac Rye & Buffalo Trace Bourbon Cream Trio brings together three expressions from Buffalo Trace Distillery that cover three entirely different production categories — the wheated bourbon flagship, the original New Orleans cocktail rye, and the bourbon-based cream liqueur — in a single bundle.
All three come from the same Frankfort, Kentucky campus. Weller Special Reserve uses the wheated mashbill — the same recipe as the Pappy Van Winkle family — at 90 proof. Sazerac Rye uses the low-rye mashbill and traces its lineage to 1800s New Orleans. Buffalo Trace Bourbon Cream is made with Buffalo Trace Kentucky Straight Bourbon blended with fresh cream — a ready-to-drink cream liqueur from one of America’s most decorated distilleries.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Buffalo Trace Bourbon Cream?
A cream liqueur made by blending Buffalo Trace Kentucky Straight Bourbon with fresh cream — the bourbon-based equivalent of Irish cream liqueurs. The Buffalo Trace base gives it a more pronounced bourbon character than many cream liqueurs. Serve chilled over ice or add to coffee for a richer version of the classic combination.
What makes Weller Special Reserve different from Buffalo Trace Bourbon?
Different mashbills. Buffalo Trace Bourbon uses the standard corn-rye-malted barley mashbill. Weller Special Reserve uses the wheated mashbill — wheat replaces rye as the secondary grain — producing a softer, sweeter character without the rye spice. The wheated recipe is the same one used in the Pappy Van Winkle family.
