Tasting Notes and Characteristics:Rich, warm, and quietly adventurous, Widow Jane 10Yr Tequila Ocho Cask Finish is made for slow sipping when you want something familiar with a twist. Bottled at 45.5% ABV, this United States whiskey builds on mature 10-year bourbon character, then gains extra dimension from finishing in Tequila Ocho casks.Expect notes of caramel, toasted oak, vanilla, roasted agave, baking spice, and a gentle citrus lift, with a rounded mouthfeel and a lightly earthy finish. It pairs beautifully with grilled steak, where char and savory fat echo the whiskey’s oak and spice, or with dark chocolate for a richer match that brings out cocoa, vanilla, and agave sweetness.Producer Information: Widow Jane DistilleryWidow Jane Distillery is based in Red Hook, Brooklyn, New York, in a converted industrial space near the waterfront. The producer began in 2012 under the direction of Daniel Preston, with roots connected to the Cacao Prieto chocolate operation and a focus on bringing serious whiskey production into New York City. Its approach combines small-batch distillation, careful barrel selection, and proofing with mineral-rich limestone water from the historic Rosendale mines in upstate New York, a signature detail that shapes the texture and balance of its whiskeys.Beyond its core bourbon releases, Widow Jane’s portfolio includes rye whiskey, limited-edition barrel finishes, and specialty bottlings such as The Vaults, Lucky Thirteen, Decadence, Baby Jane, and Apple Wood Rye. The distillery is also associated with experimental grain work, including heirloom corn, as well as mature sourced whiskey programs that are blended and finished in Brooklyn. Its wider beverage identity connects craft whiskey, New York ingredients, barrel aging, and small-lot spirits made for drinkers who value provenance, mash bill character, and distinctive maturation choices.
