117.6 proof. 19 years. Barrel #1610. Sourced. Willett Family Estate — the oldest Willett Family Estate expression currently in the Wooden Cork collection at 19 years, a sourced-distillate single barrel drawing on aged Kentucky straight bourbon from Willett's historic sourcing program.
The 19-year age statement is the longest in the current Willett collection, surpassing the 17-year #3626 own-distilled and the 25-year Rye #1780 Gold Wax (which is rye, not bourbon). As a sourced expression, the distillate comes from a Kentucky producing distillery rather than Willett's own Bardstown facility — the long-aging tradition that built Willett's reputation as a bottler before the own-distilled program matured.
At 117.6 proof and 19 years, Barrel #1610 presents the deepest oak, leather, and dried fruit complexity achievable from the sourced Willett program, with the moderate proof allowing the aged character to express cleanly without cask strength intensity.
