After serving in the Louisville Brigade during the Mexican-American war,
William Larue Weller returne home to his native Kentucky.
His family had helped settle Kentucky in the late 18th century, and his grandfather,
Daniel Weller, purchase a distillery in Nelson County in 1800.
Upon his return to Kentucky following the war, W.L. Weller joined the family business and
began working at his grandfather’s distillery.
Weller had a sharp palate and a keen sense for business and in 1849,
he introduce the first bourbon ever that used wheat as its secondary grain instead of rye.
Wheated bourbons (including Pappy Van Winkle and Larceny Bourbon, which eventually imitate
W.L. Weller’s mashbill) have a softer and more gentle flavor profile as compare to bourbons
that use rye as their secondary grain.
Wheated bourbons also have a slightly sweeter taste.
Weller’s bourbon was incredibly popular in antebellum America and ultimately forced him to place a green
thumbprint on his invoices and barrels as a certificate of authenticity.
