Willett Distillery
Overview
Founded in 1936, Willett Distillery is a family-owned and operated distillery located in Bardstown. Over the years, Willett has grown gradually, methodically, and responsibly, incorporating the family values of southern hospitality, craftsmanship, and compassion in their products and services.When you visit us, you'll begin to understand just how unique the distillery and its surroundings are. Great efforts to restore the main distillery building, cistern room, aging warehouses, and many other aspects of the grounds have transformed the property, with more exciting developments in the works. From underground, spring-fed lakes to the Kentucky split-face limestone exterior to our old turn-of-the-century belt and pulley fan systems running throughout the distillery and visitor center, it truly makes for a memorable trip.
