Description and specs

The premium offering from the Johnny Drum range of handmade bourbons, produced in very small batches at Willett Distillery .. Big ‘n bold it’s a rich, mellow old-school sour mash bourbon crafted to a method unchanged in five generations.

Tasting Notes:

The nose is sour apple, vanilla, and oak. The palate is a snowball rolling over fruits, vanilla, and spices, mixing them all together into a well balanced and complex Whiskey.

“Vanilla and stewed apples are two characteristics you’ll pick up on the nose along with slight toasted wood notes. As you taste, you get a sweetness quality that tastes of caramel. The body of the lightly spiced whiskey is almost creamy and has a lengthy finish.” – Stephanie Moreno, Distiller (90 Points)

“Now distilled in-house by Willett, the change has been an overall beneficial one, once again providing a flavorful bourbon at a rock-solid price.” – Eric Hasman, Breaking Bourbon

” Plenty of color, and the nose says it ain t lying. Sharp warehouse oak aroma puts an edge on an authoritative nose of honey, Indian pudding, spicy hard candy, and old-fashioned root beer, the not-too-sugary kind. Fiery and bold on the tongue as oak roars from start to finish, but the sweetness builds sip-by-sip: cornbread, buckwheat honey, King syrup, and a teasy bit of citrus peel. Long finish as the oak dies down. At this price, let s keep it our secret. Sourced whiskey.” – Lew Bryson, Whisky Advocate (88 Points)
