About this bottle

This is the fourth annual release for Widow Jane and its The Vaults series which features its oldest and rarest whiskey. The 2022 release is made with a blend of straight bourbons aged a minimum of 14 years and as old as 19 years. Each of The Vaults bottlings have been finished with wood from various regions and with different lengths of time for its air-seasoning. Here, Missouri Ozark oak casks which have been air-seasoned for three years are used to finish the maturation. It's proofed to 49.5% ABV with pure limestone water from the Rosendale Mines of New York 100 miles north of the Red Hook, Brooklyn distillery. Just 2,000 cases have been released with availability beginning October 2022. (SRP $250)

tylersteve 5.0

Nice and sweet with a very smooth finish. The way a bourbon should drink. Complex with its notes and a great example of a perfect blend of aged spirits.

jjoslin75 5.0

Sweet on the nose and dusty with oak on the palate. Cherry finish. Perfect whiskey! Thought the proof would hinder it but I was wrong!

jack wagstaff 4.0

Fair rollercoaster of palate sophistication as one would hope from a $250 bottle.

Maple, caramel, decadent.
