Final Thoughts
The Pot Still Reserve, housed in the iconic decanter-shaped bottle, offers a nose of vanilla, caramel, citrus zest, and soft oak. On the palate, flavors of honey, baking spice, and toasted nuts blend with hints of orange peel and light pepper. The finish is medium-long, leaving notes of vanilla cream, oak, and subtle spice. Bottled at 94 proof, it is elegant yet approachable, best enjoyed neat or with a drop of water. It pairs beautifully with roasted chicken, pecan pie, or buttery biscuits. A classic introduction to Willett’s craftsmanship and style.
