Willett 9 Year Old Single Barrel Straight Bourbon Whiskey

For the Willett family, distilling craft whiskey is a family tradition. John David Willett began distilling at the Moore, Willett & Frenke Distillery in Kentucky during Reconstruction. In 1898, Lambert Willett, who was 15 years old at the time, began apprenticing with his father. Nearly four decades later, Lambert, together with his son, Thompson, purchased a farm on the outskirts of Bardstown, Kentucky and began construction of the Willett Distilling Company. In 1936 Thompson Willett founded Willett Distillery. Today Evan Kulsveen, Thompson Willett's son-in-law and the owner of Willett Distilling Company, continues to shepherd the family legacy forward. Renowned for their signature pot still shaped bottles Willett Potstill Reserve, their Estate range of bourbon and rye represent the older versions of their choice barrels of whiskey. This Willett Family Estate Single Barrel Bourbon is matured for nine years in hand selected white oak barrels. You can expect strong spicy notes with subtle pepperiness, and signature bourbon notes of caramel and oak. Pick up your bottle today!
