Willett Distillery Ltd,[2][3] is a private, family-owned-and-operated company that produces bourbon and rye whiskey.[4][5][6][7] Over the years, the company has bottled whiskeys that range from two years of aging maturity up to 28 years. The company was named Kentucky Bourbon Distillers (KBD) between 1984 and 2012.[2]
The company is located on the outskirts of Bardstown, Kentucky,[8] on a site that began as a farm owned by the Willett family. Primarily operating as a relatively large independent bottling company, Willett Distillery has been called "the big daddy of bourbon and rye bottling".[5]
