It showcases all the power and aromatic richness of Willett’s style, delivering a full-bodied, structured, and perfectly balanced profile. Its name pays tribute to the traditional pot stills that embody the very essence of artisanal bourbon.
Its golden robe with amber glints announces a generous tasting. On the nose, it reveals indulgent aromas of vanilla, butterscotch, and honey, supported by woody nuances and ripe stone fruits. The palate, ample and velvety, unfolds with intense flavors of maple syrup, cocoa, plum jam, and gentle spices (nutmeg, cinnamon). The long, warming finish harmoniously blends toasted oak and sweet notes, offering refined persistence. A complex and elegant bourbon, best enjoyed neat to appreciate its full depth.
