About

Widow Jane Distillery is a small-batch whiskey maker based in Red Hook, Brooklyn, NY, known for its heirloom bourbon and intense New York intensity. The distillery crafts its whiskeys with pure limestone mineral water from the legendary Rosendale Mines of NY, and assembles its hand-made bourbons in Brooklyn using the richest and rarest straight bourbons.

Spirits

10 Year Bourbon

Hand assembled in Brooklyn using the richest and rarest straight bourbons, only ever in 5 barrel batches, non-chill filtered and proofed with mineral water from the legendary Rosendale Mines of NY, delivering a whiskey unique in its intensity and complexity.

Apple Wood Aged Rye

Starting from the same point as Paradigm Rye, this whiskey extends the flavor profile of rye distillate into a soothing and fruity rye compared to traditional ryes by adding fresh cut Applewood Staves alongside the oak.

Baby Jane Bourbon

A bourbon whiskey made from the distillery’s own unique heirloom corn, ‘Baby Jane,’ which has depth, sweetness and creamy-spiciness that makes this bourbon truly different. Distilled in Red Hook, Brooklyn and in Kentucky, it is true small batch bourbon hand-assembled in Brooklyn.

Black Opal

A rare unearthing of Widow Jane’s oldest whiskey, aged 20 years and finished in prized Mizunara Oak casks, an artful blend of rare whiskeys each aged for a minimum of 20 years with Old growth trees harvested, air-seasoned, and crafted into casks that receive a medium toast.

Borough Blend

A limited-edition 10 Year release specially selected by bartenders across New York’s iconic boroughs, assembled with five barrels to represent the city’s five boroughs, delivering a whiskey as rich and complex as New York itself.

Decadence

Legendary 10 year old Bourbons finished in barrels that held New York’s finest artisanal maple syrup from Crown Maple, resulting in a rich, creamy-smooth and slightly sweet mouthful of whiskey flavor that is way beyond good.

Lucky Thirteen

Aged for a minimum of thirteen years, non-chill filtered and proofed with limestone mineral water from the Legendary Rosendale Mines of NY, this small batch bourbon is aged in varying rick house positions in Red Hook, Brooklyn.

Paradigm Rye

A rye whiskey that marries comprehensive access to whiskeys across state lines with spirit distilled in Red Hook blended with hand-selected rye whiskeys from Kentucky and Indiana, carrying on the tradition of Widow Jane’s unusual Ryes that are both delicate yet a powerful base for classic cocktails.

Tequila Ocho Cask Finish

Finished for eight months in Ocho casks, this whiskey layers rich oak and dark fruit with bright spice, sun-kissed citrus, and a subtle herbal lift over silky notes of agave, honoring the favor Ocho once received in Widow Jane’s barrels.

The Vaults

A limited release of the distillery’s rarest and oldest bourbons, aged a minimum of 15 years and finished in Mythological Oak from the ancient coastal forests of Greece, offering collectors a rare chance to experience how unique wood varietals shape the profile of mature bourbon.
