Flavor Profile Differences

Proof and heat dominate the difference.

  • Willett Family Estate Small Batch 4 Year: Willett's own young distillate at full barrel proof. It is loud and sweet, all caramel corn, pastry and citrus, with a lot of heat for a four-year bourbon. Proof varies by batch.
  • Zackariah Harris: A bottom-shelf Kentucky straight bourbon, mostly sold in liters and handles. Simple caramel and oak with a short, warm finish.

Which One Should You Choose?

  • Go with Willett Family Estate Small Batch 4 Year if you want a young, hot, barrel-proof pour that shows off Willett's own distillate with the texture that comes from skipping chill filtration.
  • Go with Zackariah Harris if you want a simple Kentucky bourbon for mixing at a significantly lower price point and without hunting for it.
