The 2026 blend of Willett Family Estate Small Batch Bourbon is a commingling of two classic Willett family mash bills. A new addition to the Willett family of brands with legendary roots and fresh elegance. Both mash bills enter the barrel at 125 proof with a final bottling proof to vary among batches based on the discretion of Master Distiller and fifth generation whiskey maker, Drew Kulsveen.

The Story of Willett Distillery
Willett Distillery was established in 1936 by Thompson Willett, but the family’s whiskey legacy began long before.
Thanks to his father and grandfather, Thompson held a deep knowledge and respect for the craftsmanship involved in making fine whiskeys: Use the best ingredients available, pay close attention to the details – then take a step back and give the whiskey time and space to develop character.
It’s a simple approach, but it seems to be working.
- Nose: Caramelized brown sugar, vanilla bean, cinnamon stick, clove oil, toasted oak, and hints of citrus.
- Palate: Robust with high rye character. Flavors include toffee, maple candy, cinnamon syrup, baked apples, cacao, and a distinct "funk" or "bubblegum" note.
- Finish: Long and spicy, with notes of rye, oak, black pepper, and lingering caramel.
