While we love cask strength bourbon, the pure hard-yet-sweet limestone water of the Widow Jane Mine does so much for our profile that we can't image not having it in our bottles. The higher ABC dials up the richness and depth of our bourbon for these special releases. Every single barrel is unique. While tasting look for greater complexity, round spice & a creamy finish. 49.5% ALC/VOL - 99 Proof - Aged 12 Years in American Oak
When rye comes off the still it is sweet, grassy, and floral. A traditional “spicy” characteristic all come from the barrel. With this whiskey, our goal was to lightly oak the rye distillate in our 7-year bourbon barrels with added fresh oak staves. This is a light, tropical “summer” rye and makes for some great cocktails. A good bitter, or a splash of vermouth or ginger beer goes a long way.
