Both bottles come from Buffalo Trace Distillery. They are not the same bourbon. Blanton’s Original prints 93 proof (46.5% ABV) and Mash Bill #2 as a single barrel. Weller Special Reserve prints 90 proof (45%) and a wheated mash. A 1.5-ounce pour is 1.16 drinks vs 1.13. We will not invent mash percentages or a 2026 street price. Both can be allocated.
Antique 107 is a different Weller SKU at 107 proof. Related: Blanton’s, Weller Special Reserve, Buffalo Trace vs Blanton’s.
