Returning Cincinnati and Bourbon Back to Its Roots: Willow Run is a tribute to the rich history of Cincinnati and the legacy of its founder, William J. McRoberts Jr. Established in 1865. Willow Run embodies the city’s spirit of freedom, courage, and resilience. McRoberts, an Irish immigrant, played a pivotal role in the Underground Railroad early in his career, using bourbon barrels to help escaping slaves cross the Ohio River to freedom. This profound connection to Cincinnati's past drives our mission to revive the grand tradition of 1800s barrel blenders. Our premium bourbon is actually named after W.J. McRoberts. Unique Tasting Experiences: At Willow Run, we believe everyone should have their own custom bourbon.
