Maker:
Founded in 1936 by Thompson Willett, Willett Distillery remains a family-operated legacy in the heart of Kentucky. Built near the family farm purchased by Thompson's father, Lambert Willett, the distillery began production in 1937 with its first batch of Kentucky bourbon on St. Patrick’s Day. The Willett family’s rickhouses, strategically built on the high grounds of the county, ensured that each barrel aged with a fresh breeze aiding maturation. Over 80 years later, the Willett family continues its commitment to crafting exceptional bourbon and rye whiskey on the very grounds where the tradition began.
The Philosophy:
The Willett Distillery story goes back generations, each inspired by a profound respect for fine whiskey craftsmanship. Thompson Willett, guided by his father and grandfather, understood the essence of great whiskey: sourcing the finest ingredients, focusing on every detail, and allowing each batch the time it needs to reach its peak. This approach, prioritising patience and quality, continues to define Willett’s legacy today, producing whiskey with unparalleled character and distinction.
