Widow Jane The Vaults 2020 15 Year Old Blended Bourbon Whiskey

When the Widow Jane team set out to produce their own whiskey they wanted to offer something that was flavor-forward, bold and rich with character, but most importantly had a taste of New York. All Widow Jane whiskeys are proofed with pure limestone water from the legendary Rosendale Mines of NY, just 100 miles north from their home in Red Hook, Brooklyn. It was limestone from this mine which was used to build the foundation of some of New York's greatest structures: the gargantuan caissons of the Brooklyn Bridge, the Empire State Building, and the 27,000-ton pedestal to the Statue of Liberty. This self-renewing source of water is naturally filtered through limestone and collects in the massive underground caverns. Comprised of an unusually high mineral content that enhances the natural flavors in Widow Jane spirits, this water is their fingerprint and a signature ingredient. And the legend surrounding these mines is what gives Widow Jane whiskey its name. The result is some of the finest aged Bourbons you will find, and a tasting experience complete with beautiful aromas, a smooth and creamy mouthfeel, and an ultra-long finish. Both urban & urbane, Widow Jane is New York's very own. The signature whiskey of the world's most magnificent and maddening metropolis. This whiskey is the second release in Widow Jane's The Vaults collection, a curated annual release of the oldest bourbons made from Widow Jane stock. The blend of 15-year-and-older Tennessee and Indiana bourbons is drawn from hand-selected barrels, plucked from their Rickhouse in Brooklyn, NY, and blended by Widow Jane Head Distiller Lisa Wicker. This 2020 edition is finished in Appalachian oak casks that have been air-seasoned for 5 years, then bottled at 99 proof.
