Willett Rye 7 Year Single Barrel #4029 750ml

Seven Years of Kentucky Patience in a Single Barrel

Willett Distillery's single barrel rye program is one of the most coveted in American whiskey, and Barrel #4029 is a prime example of why. At 7 years of age, this rye has had ample time to develop the kind of layered complexity that collectors and connoisseurs seek out — bold grain character tempered by years of interaction with charred American oak. Bottled at cask strength from a single barrel with no blending and no chill filtration, every pour is a direct line to the barrel itself.

Tasting Notes

• Nose: Cracked black pepper, dried herbs, and toasted rye bread with undercurrents of vanilla, caramel, and dried cherry
• Palate: Rich and spice-forward — caraway seed, dark fruit, cinnamon bark, and a wave of butterscotch balanced by assertive rye grain
• Finish: Long and warming with lingering pepper, oak tannins, and a touch of dark chocolate
