Old Bardstown Bottled in Bond Scoresheet & Review
Willett might be one of the most frustrating distilleries for me. From what I’ve tried, their core portfolio is something of a collective headscratcher. It’s usually decent whiskey at somewhat decent pricing, depending on the bottle. My favorite that I’ve reviewed is the standard Family Estate rye whiskey, namely because…

Willett 8-Year Wheated Bourbon Scoresheet & Review
If I did End of Year posts, then Willett 8-Year Wheated Bourbon would be a frontrunner for the most audacious release.

Rowan’s Creek Scoresheet & Review
Willett isn’t a distillery I’ve had copious exposure to. They’ve certainly been on my radar with the deceptively effective label for Noah’s Mill and Willett Pot Still’s undeniably striking bottle design. However, I simply never pulled the trigger on any of their bottles, typically favoring the purchase of something more…reputable.…
