Evan Williams “USA 250th Anniversary” Bourbon Whiskey 1.75L – 86 Proof Large Format (Commemorative Edition)

Evan Williams 250th USA Anniversary Bourbon (1.75L) is a celebratory, large-format release built around one of America’s most recognizable value bourbons. The whiskey itself is classic Evan Williams—smooth, sweet, and easy-drinking with caramel, vanilla, and oak—but the commemorative packaging elevates it into a patriotic, giftable centerpiece bottle. 

Origins & Craftsmanship

Produced by Heaven Hill Distillery in Kentucky, Evan Williams is one of the most widely recognized names in American whiskey.

The brand traces its identity back to 1783, when Evan Williams is said to have opened one of Kentucky’s earliest distilleries. The modern whiskey:

• Is a Kentucky Straight Bourbon
• Bottled at 86 proof (43% ABV)
• Aged longer than the legal minimum for straight bourbon

The 250th Anniversary edition celebrates American heritage and the brand’s deep historical connection to early U.S. distilling—primarily through special packaging and patriotic branding, while maintaining the familiar liquid.
