Willett’s 4 Year Old Family Estate Small Batch Rye is a cask-strength Kentucky rye crafted from a selection of the distillery’s own estate-distilled rye recipes. Blended in extremely small batches, it showcases the house style: vibrant spice, lifted aromatics, and a natural sweetness that adds depth without softening the whiskey’s character. The result is a rye that punches well above its age statement, offering structure, freshness, and a bold expressive grain profile.
Established in 1936 and family-owned across multiple generations, Willett Distillery operates from the historic Bardstown site overlooking the rolling Kentucky hills. Since returning to full production in 2012, Willett has earned a cult following for its estate-distilled bourbons and ryes, each released at full proof and in small quantities. The Family Estate line represents the pinnacle of the distillery’s craftsmanship, highlighting unique batches that reflect the nuances and individuality of Willett’s rye whiskey.
