Review:
Noah Mill Bourbon is produced by the Kentucky Bourbon Distillers (KBD) in Bardstown, Kentucky. The distiller was originally named the Willet Distilling Company until it underwent a name change in the 1980’s. The Willet family has been in producing whiskey since the late 1800’s and KBD also produces other expressions such as Rowan’s Creek, Willet Rye, Willet Bourbon, and many more.
Noah Mill is 75.13% abs or 114.3 proof and has no age statement. From my research, it is a blend of maybe four bourbons aged around 15-20 years, however, at its retail cost I doubt this whiskey is blended with such aged spirits.
This expression from Willet is a side project and has low production. You might not easily find it in your area. I have seen it only a couple of times in the Tri-State area. It is not amazing, it is not bad, it just has a bit of an odd finish and is very “hot” due to the proof. You will need to cut it with water. I was surprised how smooth it tastes for such a high proof compared to other whiskeys in the same range.
Priced around $50 and good but I prefer other high proof bourbons for mixers.
