Willett continues to be one of the hottest names in Kentucky bourbon and rye. The distillery, starting in 2008, built a cult following with its Family Estate line of sourced whiskeys, the origins of which still remain rumors (at least some barrels probably came from their Bardstown neighbor, Heaven Hill). In addition to Family Estate, Willett also hit the shelves early on with a more widely available bourbon called Pot Still Reserve. Until recent years, this was also a sourced single barrel product, but today it’s a blend of bourbons bottled in small batches from an unknown distillery (or distilleries) with no age statement. It is also presented in one of the most striking bottles out there: a pot still-shaped decanter with a big gold seal on the shoulder that demands a healthy amount of shelf space. We recently cleaned out the shelves at Drinkhacker HQ, so we finally had room to pick up a bottle. Thoughts follow.

On the nose, Pot Still Reserve shows a uniquely fruity bouquet: lemon frosting, ripe cherry, and mandarin orange. Underneath all that fruit are layers of butterscotch pudding, vanilla extract, and a touch of prickly spice. While Willett doesn’t share the source of this whiskey, it wouldn’t surprise me if some of this was their house-made bourbon because the sweet, fruity notes are strikingly similar to the latest Old Bardstown Bottled-in-Bond. The palate is light and a little thin but nicely balanced with classic bourbon flavors: caramel, toffee, candied pecans, spice cabinet, and orange peel. There’s a subtle bit of cocktail cherries on the medium-length finish, which again reminds me of Old Bardstown, but that bourbon has a slightly richer palate, higher proof, and a significantly lower price tag.

The source of FIX High Alkaline Vodka starts 3 miles deep underground as pure Texas artesian spring water from a natural aquifer high in calcium and magnesium.

Heart of organic grain spirit is finely integrated using a proprietary process which mimics deep earth volcanic forces that maintains high pH. Organic charcoal filters are used during a 10x distillation process giving FIX High Alkaline Vodka a true high alkaline, pesticide-free, organic grain, vegan vodka with a distinct clean and incredibly smooth finish.

High pH, low BS – See it Big, Keep it Simple

The pH scale, running from 0 to 14, measures how acidic or basic a substance is, with a pH of 7 being neutral. Most vodkas tend to have a pH of 4, which is on the acidic side; FIX High Alkaline Vodka's pH is higher than 8, so it's more on the basic side.

The One and Only New Orleans Original. Sazerac Rye Whiskey symbolizes the tradition and history of New Orleans. Rye Whiskey that dates back to the 1800’s, around the time when saloons, veiled as Coffee Houses, began lining the streets of New Orleans. It was at the Sazerac Coffee House on Royal Street where local patrons were served toddies made with Rye Whiskey and Peychaud’s Bitters. The libation became known as the “Sazerac” and America’s first branded cocktail was born. This is the whiskey that started it all.

Clase Azul Reposado is an ultra-premium reposado tequila made with Tequilana Weber Blue Agave that is slow cooked in traditional stone ovens for a minimum of 72 hours. Once the agave reaches a deep, rich flavor, it is fermented with proprietary yeast prior to distillation. Once the tequila is distilled, it is aged for 8 months in hand-selected oak barrels. This process results in a superb, smooth taste which exceeds expectations with each sip.

TASTING NOTES

Don Julio 70® Añejo Claro Tequila is the culmination of 70 years of knowledge, expertise and innovation. Don Julio 70® Añejo Claro Tequila is aged eighteen months in American white-oak barrels and then carefully filtered to bring out its crisp agave flavor.

Coming from the great master distiller Parker Beam, the Elijah Craig bourbon has to be one of the best-value bourbons on the market! Great balance of sweetness and spice. Also, at 94 proof, it has just the right amount of kick.
