Willett Wheated 8 Year is the first wheated bourbon Willett has made in decades — distilled spring 2013, the family's first full year back on the stills, bottled summer 2022 at 108 proof, non-chill-filtered. The Willett family built the distillery on the hill outside Bardstown in 1936; Drew Kulsveen restarted the stills in 2012 after thirty years of bottling sourced stock, and the Wheated is one of the first fully house-made age-stated Willetts — a proprietary wheated mashbill, barreled at 115 proof in #4-char American oak, aged eight years in the Bardstown rickhouses, and bottled without chill filtration at 108 proof. The Whiskey Shelf: honey, grape, licorice, roasted oak, cinnamon, clove, orange peel, bubblegum, and caramel — unusually spice-forward for a wheater. Bourbon Culture and Thirty-One Whiskey both find the Willett house funk — dark, oaky, a little wild — under the wheat's sweetness. Expect a wheated bourbon that doesn't taste like Weller: grape and licorice over caramel, more oak and spice than softness, and a long, warm finish. Honest note: reviewers argue about the price and agree it's a real Willett — eight-year, house-distilled, cask-adjacent proof — for the Willett collector and the drinker who wants a wheater with an edge; allocated, and the first of its kind. Neat, a drop of water. Willett, wheated, eight years.Buy Willett Wheated 8 Year Old Bourbon Whiskey online with fast shipping right to your door.
