Evan Williams is a smooth, easy-to-drink bourbon named after Evan Williams, who, in 1783, opened Kentucky’s first commercial distillery along the banks of the Ohio River. Many years and barrels later, they’re still producing Bourbon with the same time-honoured methods that Evan Williams did years ago. Today, Evan Williams is the second-best-selling Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey in the US and worldwide, distilled just a few blocks from the site where Evan himself built his distillery.
