Same wheated family. Different proof. The Special Reserve page prints 90 proof (45% ABV). The Antique 107 page prints 107 proof (53.5% ABV). Both say wheated mash. A 1.5-ounce pour is 1.13 drinks at 45% and 1.34 at 53.5%. This is not a winner and not an MSRP card.
William Larue Weller is a different annual Antique Collection SKU. Related: Special Reserve, Antique 107, who makes Weller.
