Evan Williams 1783 Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey is crafted in Bardstown, Kentucky, reflecting the heritage of Kentucky’s first commercial distiller. This small-batch bourbon is aged longer than the flagship Black Label, drawing from fewer than 200 barrels to ensure exceptional quality. Bottled at 90 proof, it follows the same sour mash process that defines the Evan Williams legacy.
The whiskey shines with a brilliant honey hue and offers rich aromas of oaky vanilla, butter, and sweet corn. On the palate, it delivers a balanced experience with semi-sweet notes of oak and honey, followed by a lean, off-dry finish that is smooth yet refined. The well-integrated flavors embody tradition with a modern edge, making it a versatile bourbon for various drinking occasions.
Whether enjoyed neat, on the rocks, or in classic bourbon cocktails, Evan Williams 1783 showcases why it has earned top honors, including a Double Gold at the 2022 San Francisco World Spirits Competition. Its approachable character, elegant finish, and award-winning profile make it an ideal choice for both seasoned enthusiasts and newcomers to Kentucky bourbon.
