Willett Pot Still Small Batch Bourbon

Willett Pot Still Small Batch Bourbon is crafted at the Willett Distillery, located in Bardstown, Kentucky, often referred to as the Bourbon Capital of the World. A family-owned and operated business since its founding in 1936, Willett blends tradition and craftsmanship into every bottle. This bourbon is famous for its eye-catching packaging, housed in a glass decanter shaped like a copper pot still, which pays homage to traditional distillation methods. While the bourbon was originally released as a single-barrel in 2008, it transitioned to a small-batch production in 2015 to meet growing demand. True to the name “small batch,” Willett produces these in very limited quantities, with each batch incorporating around 12 barrels. This process delivers unique variations between batches, setting it apart in a market where consistency often overshadows individuality. Though the production details remain somewhat mysterious, Willett's commitment to quality is unmistakable. The bourbon is believed to originate from both column stills and partial pot still methods, adding a distinct touch to its creation. The small batch method and Bardstown’s rich limestone-filtered water contribute to its craftsmanship, making Willett Pot Still a celebrated blend of innovation and history.
