Willet Pot Still Reserve is a single barrel straight bourbon which first made an appearance in 2008, and since has grown into a well-respected and highly rated offering.
The Pot Still Reserve stands out at the store due to its bottling. This is a bottle you’ll likely want to keep and continue using as your new whiskey decanter around the home. It features an exceedingly long and thin neck, which widens into a flattened circular bubble of a base, with a cork topper.
Very floral on the nose with wonderful citrus notes; more citrus on the palate with loads of honey & then turning quite herbal on the finish. An incredibly different and inviting array of aromas & flavours when water is added!
