Rated Among the Top 10 Alcohol Retailers on Trustpilot
Presenting a delicious Kentucky rye whiskey crafted by Willett Distillery. This exceptional spirit is patiently aged for four years in fresh charred white oak barrels, allowing it to develop its rich flavor profile. Bottled at a robust cask strength of 56% ABV, it showcases the full intensity of its character.
Tasting Note by Willett Distillery:
Nose: Beautiful layering of brandied cherry over a mildly tart cherry. It opens up with time and is reminiscent of cutting into your dessert with your fork which releases cinnamon and baking spices with just a hint of oak to remind you that this is high proof youthful.
Palette: A robust rye with dark cherry, burnt vanilla, and spices for days. It's a delicious rye with a weighty mouthfeel.
Balance: It's insanely well balanced with the alcohol so perfectly integrated at 115 proof you'll forget its there, but you'll find yourself smiling more and happier with each dram.
Finish: The finish is long and the spices dominate this batch, while the cherry does punch its way through to the surface.
Color me impressed with Willett Family Estate 4 Year Rye – it’s fantastic. It’s a very interesting, dense, and unique rye that hits all the right rye whiskey notes for me yet adds a unique twist with added lemon, fennel, caraway seed, and general darkness.
