Widow Jane

New York, Brooklyn, USA · 2012'den beri

Widow Jane is one of the most compelling independent distilleries to emerge from Brooklyn, New York, having been established in 2012. The name itself draws from the historic Widow Jane Mine, located in Rosendale in the Hudson Valley region of New York State — a limestone mine whose stone was integral to the construction of the Brooklyn Bridge in the 19th century. This heritage runs deep in everything the brand does. Most notably, Widow Jane sources its water exclusively from the Rosendale mine's aquifer, celebrated for its exceptional softness and rich mineral content, which imparts a distinctive roundness and depth to every expression. The flagship bottling blends carefully sourced bourbon distillate from Kentucky and Indiana, marrying corn-forward and wheat-forward profiles into a harmonious whole. The distillery also produces a range of single barrel and solera-aged expressions released in limited quantities, each showcasing meticulous cask selection. Widow Jane represents the spirit of Brooklyn itself — inventive, layered, and unafraid of reinvention — while remaining firmly rooted in the grand tradition of American whiskey craft.
