Widow Jane proudly unveils the “Lucky Thirteen” 2023 release, a 13-year-old small batch bourbon with a proof of 46.5% ALC/VOL. This exquisite whiskey’s aging process is deeply influenced by both time and place. The barrels used have been shaped by the vastly different temperatures and humidity levels of their original locations, and further refined during their tenure in the rick house located in Red Hook, Brooklyn. Such diverse conditions, combined with the unique positioning within the rick house and the ever-changing climate, have introduced subtle flavor deviations. These nuances come harmoniously together in hyper-small batches, often just a few barrels at a time.
The bourbon is aged for a minimum of thirteen years and is non-chill filtered. It’s proofed with the brand’s own limestone mineral water, sourced from the Legendary Rosendale Mines of New York. This special edition, Lucky Thirteen, stands as a testament to shared good fortune. When it comes to tasting, the aroma is a delightful blend of vanilla bean, Earl Grey tea, caramel, and sweet tobacco. The palate is treated to flavors reminiscent of pecan pie, whole grain toast, and a hint of grapefruit peel. The finish lingers with notes of nutmeg, birch beer, and a touch of dry oak tannin. This 2023 release is a testament to Widow Jane’s commitment to excellence and tradition in bourbon crafting.
