Full product description

Willett Family Estate Bottled Rye is a small-batch, cask-strength Kentucky straight rye from the Willett Distillery in Bardstown, highly sought after by rye enthusiasts. Aged for four years, it marries Willett's high-rye mash bill of 74% rye, 11% corn and 15% malted barley with its lower-rye recipe of 51% rye, 34% corn and 15% malted barley.

Bottled at barrel proof, the strength varies from batch to batch. The nose offers layered brandied cherry, opening with time to cinnamon, baking spices and a hint of oak. The palate is robust and weighty, with dark cherry, burnt vanilla and plenty of spice, and the alcohol is well integrated. The finish is long, with spice to the fore and cherry coming through. Enjoy it neat or with a drop of water to open it up.
