Straight Bourbon Whiskey, Old Bardstown Bottled In Bond

• Bottled in Bond straight bourbon whiskey produced by Willett Distillery in Bardstown, Kentucky
• Mash bill of 72% corn, 13% rye, and 15% malted barley
• Produced with limestone-filtered, spring-fed water from the distillery estate
• Sour mash fermented in stainless steel for approximately 3–5 days using a proprietary yeast strain
• Twice distilled using a column still made of copper and stainless steel and a Vendome copper pot still modeled after Willett’s original, patented pot still
• Aged for a minimum of 4 years in new, char #4 American oak barrels from Independent Stave Company’s Kentucky cooperage; non-age statement
• Aromas of white flower introduce a full, expressive nose that ranges from boiled peanuts to street corn to proofing rye dough accented with fresh fennel, cigar-bar leather, cedar box, and butterscotch. The palate is ample and lively: crème brûlée and poached orchard fruits finishing with green peppercorn and oak spice, lengthened by lingering proof.
• 50% ABV
