Rowan's Creek Willet Distillery Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey 750ml

Rowan’s Creek is produced by the legendary Willett Distillery in Bardstown, Kentucky — one of the most respected craft bourbon operations in the country, family-owned by the Kulsveen family and deeply rooted in Kentucky distilling tradition. Named after the creek that runs through the Willett property, Rowan’s Creek is bottled at 100.1 proof and non-chill filtered, preserving the full texture and complexity of the spirit exactly as it comes off the still. This is a serious, well-crafted bourbon built for those who want more than the standard shelf.

Rich, oily, and layered — Rowan’s Creek opens with an inviting nose of caramel and vanilla over herbal and floral notes, then delivers a full, complex palate that finishes dry with lingering oak and spice. Non-chill filtration gives it a mouthfeel that is distinctly lush and satisfying, especially neat or with a single large ice cube.

"Bringing your nose to the glass and your olfactory is treated to caramel and vanilla layered on herbal and floral notes. The mouthfeel starts oily but finishes dry. On the palate you are treated to sweet caramel, vanilla, dusted in floral notes… finishing notes of oak and a lingering spiciness." — Willett Distillery
