- Excerpt: Im very impressed by this - it is definitely young and could use some more time - it has that "Green" wet cardboard note I get from a lot of young distillate. That being said, its sweet, buttery and complex for what it is and I"m very glad I was able to try it.

Sweet corn, caramel, toffee, vanilla

Rich mouthfeel, some mild youth (wet cardboard), sweet vanilla, cream, toffee. Still definitely young, but has really strong potential.

Long, complex but sweet. Heat is very well managed

Overall:
I'm very impressed by this - it is definitely young and could use some more time - it has that "Green" wet cardboard note I get from a lot of young distillate. That being said, its sweet, buttery and complex for what it is and I'm very glad I was able to try it. The proof is on point and I really like the mouth feel. I'm not sold on WIllett's distillate yet, but this is a very confident move in the right direction for them. I'm excited to see where it goes. I'll give this a Rank 6.
