Straight Bourbon Whiskey, Pot Still Reserve

Straight Bourbon Whiskey Pot Still Reserve Willett Distillery
  • Straight bourbon whiskey produced by Willett Distillery in Bardstown, Kentucky
  • Mash bill of 65% corn, 20% wheat, and 15% malted barley
  • Produced with limestone-filtered, spring-fed water from a pond on the distillery estate
  • Sour mash fermented in stainless steel for approximately 3–5 days using a proprietary yeast strain
  • Twice distilled using a column still made of copper and stainless steel and a Vendome copper pot still modeled after Willett’s original, patented pot still
  • Aged for a minimum of 4 years in new, char #4 American oak barrels from Independent Stave Company’s Kentucky cooperage; non-age statement
  • A nose of tapioca, vanilla bean, caramelized sugar, and thyme pushes to a dusty palate of lemon poppyseed cake with a hint of cane sugar and coffee on a long, satisfying finish
  • Batch number displayed on bottle
  • 47% ABV

Perhaps the most iconic silhouette in American whiskey, the Willett Pot Still Reserve bottle is shaped to replicate the distinctive pot still in which it is made. This is the distillery’s flagship bottling, made to be enjoyed by casual enthusiasts and connoisseurs alike, and though all of Willett’s releases spend a minimum four years in barrel, expect this small batch wheated bourbon to be slightly older.
