Willett Family Estate Willett Family Estate Single Bottled Barrel Bourbon (111.8 Proof Barrel no.1582) 19 year 750 ml

Willett Family Estate's Single Barrel Bourbon comes from barrel no. 1582, bottled at a full cask strength of 111.8 proof after nineteen years of ageing — an unusually long rest for a bourbon. Willett has distilled and aged whiskey in Bardstown, Kentucky since the 1930s, and single-barrel releases like this one are bottled without blending, so the character is entirely that one barrel's. Expect the deep, concentrated profile long ageing produces: heavy oak, dark caramel, dried fruit, and baking spice, with real heat from the high proof. It's built for bourbon collectors and serious sippers chasing a specific, one-of-a-kind barrel rather than a consistent everyday pour.

How to drink Willett Family Estate Single Barrel Bourbon

Add a splash of water before you taste it — at 111.8 proof, a little dilution opens up the caramel and dried fruit without losing the barrel's intensity. This is a sipping bourbon through and through; save it for a rocks glass and an unhurried evening, not a mixer.
