How much does each Weller bourbon cost?
Buffalo Trace Distillery makes the Weller line. Its brand page lists Special Reserve, Antique 107, 12 Year, Full Proof, Single Barrel, C.Y.P.B., Millennium and William Larue Weller, plus the experimental Daniel Weller. (Source: Buffalo Trace Distillery, W.L. Weller) All are wheated bourbons, made with wheat instead of rye as the secondary grain.

Weller Special Reserve price
Special Reserve is the entry bottle, sold at 90 proof. The distillery calls it the "Original Wheated Bourbon." (Source: Buffalo Trace Distillery, Special Reserve)
North Carolina charges $33.95 for 750ml and $36.95 for 1L. (Source: NC ABC, November 2026) Virginia ABC is cheaper: $28.99, $36.99 and $52.99 for the 750ml, 1L and 1.75L. (Source: Virginia ABC)
The Collective puts a recent 750ml at about $42 and a 1L at about $53. (Source: The Collective, Special Reserve 750ml) (Source: The Collective, Special Reserve 1L) That is close to shelf price, so a $70 tag on Special Reserve is hard to justify.
Weller Antique 107 price
Antique 107 is the same wheated style bottled at 107 proof (53.5% ABV). (Source: Buffalo Trace Distillery, Antique 107) North Carolina lists the standard 750ml at $59.95, unchanged since its May 2026 list. (Source: NC ABC, November 2026) (Source: NC ABC, May 2026)
NC also sells a barrel-select Antique 107 (code 17-666, marked BTB) for $64.95. We found no Virginia ABC product page for Antique 107. The Collective's estimate for a recent 750ml is about $86. (Source: The Collective, Old Weller Antique 107)
Weller 12 Year price
Weller 12 Year is bottled at 90 proof, like Special Reserve, and the distillery says it is aged significantly longer than most wheated bourbons. It describes its mid-palate as "heavily wheated." (Source: Buffalo Trace Distillery, W.L. Weller 12 Year)
North Carolina prices the 750ml at $49.95 and the 1L at $68.95. (Source: NC ABC, November 2026) Per milliliter, the 750ml is slightly cheaper, so there is no bulk discount on the liter.
On resale, The Collective shows about $108 for a recent 750ml and $140 for a 1L. (Source: The Collective, 12 Year 750ml) (Source: The Collective, 12 Year 1L) That is more than twice NC's shelf price for the 750ml.
Weller Full Proof price
Full Proof goes into the bottle at 114 proof, the same strength it entered the barrel, and it is not chill filtered. The distillery notes that it can look cloudy when chilled. (Source: Buffalo Trace Distillery, Weller Full Proof)
It costs $64.95 in North Carolina and $64.99 at Virginia ABC. (Source: NC ABC) (Source: Virginia ABC, Weller Full Proof) NC's barrel-select version (code 19-006) is $69.95, up from $66.95 in May. (Source: NC ABC, May 2026) Resale for a recent standard bottle is about $105. (Source: The Collective, Full Proof)
Weller Single Barrel price
Each bottle comes from one barrel, picked by hand, at 97 proof. The distillery says no two barrels are quite the same. (Source: Buffalo Trace Distillery, Weller Single Barrel)
Shelf price is $59.95 in North Carolina and $59.99 in Virginia. (Source: NC ABC) (Source: Virginia ABC, Weller Single Barrel) The Collective's resale estimate is about $196, more than three times shelf price. (Source: The Collective, Single Barrel)
Weller C.Y.P.B. price
C.Y.P.B. stands for "Craft Your Perfect Bourbon," a consumer survey. The result is a 95-proof wheated bourbon aged on the highest warehouse floors. (Source: Buffalo Trace Distillery, Weller C.Y.P.B.)
NC lists it at $64.95 and Virginia at $64.99. (Source: NC ABC) (Source: Virginia ABC, Weller CYPB) It has the largest markup of the standard Wellers: The Collective estimates about $228. (Source: The Collective, Weller CYPB)
How much are William Larue Weller and the ultra-aged Wellers?
Three Wellers sit well above the rest. William Larue Weller is part of the Buffalo Trace Antique Collection. Millennium and Weller 18 Year are decanter releases with their own launch prices.
| Bottle | Age / proof (producer) | Official suggested retail | NC ABC retail (Nov 1, 2026) | Virginia ABC (checked Nov 10, 2026) | Secondary estimate (The Collective, Aug 2026) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| William Larue Weller (750ml) | 2025 release: 14 years / 129 proof | $149.99 (2025 release) | $154.95 | $154.99 (lottery) | About $1,000 (2025); $1,042 (2024) |
| Weller Millennium (750ml) | Blend distilled 2000s / 99 proof | $7,500 (second edition, July 2025) | $7,499.95 | $4,999.99 (lottery) | $4,550 last trade (2024 first edition) |
| Weller 18 Year (700ml) | 18 years / 90 proof | $499 (travel retail, July 2025) | Not listed | Not listed | About $2,183 (2025, 6-month average) |

William Larue Weller price
William Larue Weller is the uncut, unfiltered barrel-proof Weller, released each fall. For 2025, the distillery filled the barrels at 114 proof; after 14 years they came out at 129 proof. (Source: Buffalo Trace Antique Collection 2025)
The proof changes every year. The distillery's product page shows 128, and NC's list still shows 133.6, the 2023 proof. We use the release announcement. (Source: Buffalo Trace Distillery, William Larue Weller)
Suggested retail for the 2025 Antique Collection was $149.99 per bottle. (Source: BTAC 2025 release) NC's list moved from $149.95 in May to $154.95 in November. (Source: NC ABC, May 2026) (Source: NC ABC, November 2026) Virginia ABC sells it for $154.99, by lottery. (Source: Virginia ABC)
Few buyers get one at those prices. Pennsylvania's January 2026 lottery offered 60 bottles statewide at $149.99: 45 for consumers and 15 for licensees. (Source: PLCB, Limited-Release Lotteries) The Collective's resale estimate is about $1,000 for the 2025 bottle and $1,042 for 2024. (Source: The Collective, WLW 2025) (Source: The Collective, WLW 2024)
Weller Millennium price
Millennium is a blend of vintage straight bourbons and wheat whiskeys distilled in the early 2000s, bottled at 99 proof. (Source: Buffalo Trace Distillery, Weller Millennium) The first edition came out in May 2024, in a crystal decanter. (Source: Buffalo Trace Distillery, Millennium second edition release)
For the second edition, the distillery set a suggested retail price of $7,500 for 750ml, with retail shipments from July 2025. (Source: Buffalo Trace Distillery, Weller 18 and Millennium release) NC lists Millennium at $7,499.95. (Source: NC ABC)
Virginia ABC lists it at $4,999.99, through its lottery. (Source: Virginia ABC, Weller Millennium) The Collective's last recorded trade for a boxed 2024 first edition was $4,550, below both the $7,500 MSRP and NC's price. (Source: The Collective, Millennium 2024)
Weller 18 Year price
Weller 18 Year is a 90-proof wheat whiskey, not a bourbon, and the brand's oldest age statement. It launched in July 2025 in travel retail (LAX, JFK and Heathrow) at $499 for a 700ml decanter. (Source: Buffalo Trace Distillery, Weller 18 release)
It is not on NC's list. The Collective's six-month average for the 2025 bottle is about $2,183. (Source: The Collective, Weller 18)
How far above shelf price does Weller resell?
We compared each bottle's North Carolina shelf price with The Collective's resale estimate. Both numbers are cited above. This is our own calculation, not a market quote.
| Bottle (750ml) | NC ABC shelf (Nov 1, 2026) | Resale estimate (The Collective, Aug 2026) | Difference (our calculation) | Resale ÷ shelf |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Weller Special Reserve | $33.95 | $42 | +$8 | 1.2x |
| Weller Antique 107 | $59.95 | $86 | +$26 | 1.4x |
| Weller 12 Year | $49.95 | $108 | +$58 | 2.2x |
| Weller Full Proof | $64.95 | $105 | +$40 | 1.6x |
| Weller Single Barrel | $59.95 | $196 | +$136 | 3.3x |
| Weller C.Y.P.B. | $64.95 | $228 | +$163 | 3.5x |
| William Larue Weller (2025) | $154.95 | $1,000 | +$845 | 6.5x |
| Weller Millennium (2024 first edition) | $7,499.95 | $4,550 | −$2,950 | 0.6x |
The pattern is clear. Special Reserve and Antique 107 resell for $8 to $26 over shelf, and fees and shipping can wipe that out. The premium jumps for bottles made in smaller lots: Single Barrel and C.Y.P.B. resell at more than three times shelf price, and William Larue Weller at about six and a half times.
Millennium runs the other way. The one recorded first-edition trade was 39% below NC's list price, so the most expensive Weller is the one buyers flip at a loss.
Why are Weller prices so different from store to store?
Allocation. Virginia ABC marks every Weller we checked as "Periodic Availability." It says each one is "produced in very limited amounts," sold at randomly selected stores, one bottle per customer per day. (Source: Virginia ABC, Special Reserve) (Source: Virginia ABC, CYPB)
The rarest bottles go by lottery. Virginia sells William Larue Weller and Millennium that way, and Pennsylvania had only 60 William Larue Weller bottles for the whole state in January 2026. (Source: Virginia ABC) (Source: PLCB)
Private stores in open states set their own prices, and scarce bottles get tagged near resale. State lists also differ from each other: Special Reserve is $4.96 cheaper in Virginia than in North Carolina, while Millennium is $2,499.96 cheaper.
What is an old Weller bottle worth?
Older bottles trade under the Old Weller Antique name. That is also how The Collective lists recent Antique 107. (Source: The Collective, Old Weller Antique 107)
Age and label matter. A 2001 "7 Year" Old Weller Antique squat bottle last traded at $940, and a 2010 old-label squat at $265. Each figure rests on just two recorded trades, so treat them as rough guides. (Source: The Collective, 2001 7 Year) (Source: The Collective, 2010 old label)
Condition drives the rest. Our old whiskey bottle value guide covers fill level, seals and provenance.
How can you avoid overpaying for Weller?
- Use a dated state list as your anchor. In November 2026, standard 750ml Wellers cost $28.99 to $64.99 at NC and Virginia state stores. (Source: NC ABC)
- Skip the markup on Special Reserve. Resale is only about $42, so paying much more than that is paying above market. (Source: The Collective)
- Enter lotteries for William Larue Weller. Pennsylvania and Virginia both sell it at about $150 through drawings. (Source: PLCB) (Source: Virginia ABC)
- Check the year and proof. William Larue Weller changes every release. Each Antique Collection bottle comes with a letter on its production and aging. (Source: BTAC 2025 release)
How does Weller compare with Pappy Van Winkle and other Buffalo Trace bottles?
Van Winkle is the other famous wheated bourbon in these allocations, and Pennsylvania drew both brands in its January 2026 lotteries. (Source: PLCB) Van Winkle bottles cost more and are rarer. Our Pappy Van Winkle price guide has their prices and resale values.
For the distillery's other allocated bottles, see our Eagle Rare price guide, Blanton's price guide and Double Eagle Very Rare guide. The flagship bottle is covered in our Buffalo Trace price guide.
Bottom line on Weller bourbon prices
At state stores, expect $29 to $34 for Special Reserve, about $50 for the 12 Year and $60 to $65 for Antique 107, Full Proof, Single Barrel and C.Y.P.B. William Larue Weller is about $150 if you win a lottery.
Resale is where Weller gets expensive. Drink the everyday bottles, and pay up only for one you plan to open.
