About Widow Jane
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 of their home in Red Hook, Brooklyn. It was limestone from this mine that 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 Bourbon 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.

While I appreciate the craftsmanship behind Widow Jane 15 Year Old, I found it somewhat underwhelming. The oak influence was strong, which overshadowed some of the sweeter notes. It’s good, but I expected more depth for the price tag.

This bourbon is quite impressive! Widow Jane 15 Year Old has a beautiful mouthfeel and a rich flavor profile with hints of coffee and raisins. It’s smooth and enjoyable, though I think it could benefit from a slightly longer finish. Overall, a great choice for bourbon lovers!
