Willett is one of the most fascinating and sought-after names in American whiskey — a fifth-generation family distillery in Bardstown, Kentucky with a history as complex and layered as the whiskey it produces. The Willett family's roots in Kentucky distilling stretch back to 1792 when William Willett Jr. moved to Nelson County the same year Kentucky became a state, and the modern distillery was founded in 1936 by Thompson Willett on the family farm. Now guided by president Britt Kulsveen and master distiller Drew Kulsveen, Willett has earned a nonconformist cult following with retro label designs that never saw a focus group and a single barrel program that collectors obsess over. The flagship expressions include the iconic Pot Still Reserve — a single barrel wheated bourbon aged 8–10 years in its distinctive pot still-shaped bottle — and the Family Estate single barrel program spanning 5 through 17+ years of own-distilled production. From the purple-topped Family Estate Rye and the powerhouse Noah's Mill to rare allocated single barrel releases that sell out immediately, every Willett bottle is worth hunting down.
