Hand assembled in Brooklyn this whiskey from Widow Jane is distilled from a rye mash and is aged in American oak barrels. The first thing that strikes you is that classic cockle-warming rye character all rich caramel and fiery black pepper. But there’s also lots of fruit (think orange peel and peach iced tea) plus runny honey amaretti and a savoury earthiness. It’s a spicy little number that’s calling out for cocktails so grab some bitters vermouth or ginger beer and have a play.
Widow Jane is small-batch Bourbon from the cobblestone streets of Red Hook Brooklyn. Their team scour the country for the finest barrels of Straight Bourbon and rye whiskey then blend them together. Finally the whiskeys are proofed (brought to the desired drinking ABV) with mineral water sourced from the Widow Jane Mine in Rosendale Upstate New York. Limestone from Rosendale’s legendary mines was used to build some of America’s most recognisable sites such as the Brooklyn Bridge the Empire State Building Grand Central Terminal the White house the Washington Monument and the pedestal of the Statue of Liberty. So that water is a pretty solid foundation on which to construct a monumental whiskey. Widow Jane also distil their own spirit using non-GMO ingredients including a corn varietal called Baby Jane that’s unique to them. So keep an eye out for more to come.
Widow Jane whiskeys are non-chill-filtered to avoid stripping out any of their delicious character so you might find a little harmless sediment in the bottle.
