Whiskey from a copper pot still. Nothing is more classic or at home in Kentucky.

1833 Single Barrel
Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey
1833 stands for finishing what you start. It’s the year our building, which houses Wildcat Willy’s Distillery, was built. The brick structure has been a wool carding factory, a church, an electric company, and a storage building. After it was condemned and falling to ruins, we saved it and turned it into a place where friends gather, have a meal and a drink, and watch us make whiskey.
It’s a revival for our building and for our Kentucky small town. So let 1833 small batch Kentucky whiskey revive you, too.

Liberty Lightning Moonshine
We live for liberty here in Kentucky and Liberty Lightning is our drink.
Distilled from organic corn, grown on Mt. Folly Farm, our moonshine is made the old-fashioned way. This is a true craft corn liquor.
While the exact mash bill is secret, come visit us in-season to see how we farm organically and grow the ingredients for Wildcat Willy’s Distillery.
Willy, a combat-wounded Green Beret, is tough when he needs to be.
He cherishes his freedom, loves kittens and feeding the birds, and goes to church on Sundays.
Don’t forget Willy’s promise:
“Liberty Lightning, it’ll ring your bell!”

Sweet Potato Moonshine
The sweet potato is a handy plant and sort of a miracle. You can bake it, boil it, fry it, and distill it!
We grow the sweet potatoes organically at Mt. Folly Farm and dig them up in the fall. It’s a bountiful harvest and creates this soft moonshine with a subtle hint of sweetness.
Like Willy, a combat-wounded Green Beret, our sweet potatoes are tough. They prefer tropical weather,
but we grew them in the dog days of summer here on our Kentucky farm.
With the odds against us, we harvested 3 to 5 pound roots from the Earth. These sweet potatoes remind us that even when things aren’t perfect, we can thrive wherever we’re planted!
We hope you enjoy our beloved
underdog: the miraculous sweet potato;and remember Willy’s lesson:
be tough when it’s needed.
