🥃 DadDimes on the Rocks — Season 6, Episode 3: Weller Single Barrel Bourbon Review

On this episode of DadDimes on the Rocks, we pour one of the most talked-about wheated bourbons on the market — Weller Single Barrel Bourbon. Built on the legacy of the Weller name and carrying the reputation that follows every Buffalo Trace release, this bottle arrives with serious expectations before the first sip ever hits the glass.

As a single barrel expression, each release brings its own subtle personality while staying rooted in the smooth, soft profile that wheated bourbon fans chase. Replacing rye in the mash bill with wheat creates a richer, gentler sweetness, and Weller Single Barrel leans fully into that signature style.

The nose opens with layers of caramel, vanilla cream, honey, and fresh baked bread, followed by hints of toasted oak and warm cinnamon. There’s a softness to the aroma, but plenty of depth waiting underneath. On the palate, the whiskey delivers a rich wave of butterscotch, brown sugar, and vanilla custard before notes of oak, baking spice, and light fruit begin to unfold. The mouthfeel is full and rounded, offering a smooth sip with enough structure to remind you this is more than just an easy drinker.

The finish lingers with gentle warmth, sweet oak, and a touch of pepper that balances the wheat-driven sweetness beautifully. It’s refined, approachable, and carries the kind of profile that explains why bottles like this disappear from shelves so quickly.

Throughout the episode, we break down whether Weller Single Barrel lives up to the hype, how it compares to other expressions in the Weller lineup, and whether this is a bottle worth hunting, trading for, or simply enjoying when luck puts one in your hands.

Pour a glass and join DadDimes as we talk flavor, value, rarity, and the culture surrounding one of bourbon’s most chased names.

Because at DadDimes on the Rocks, the best pours come with even better stories.
