Description
The Vaults 2024 limited release is a marriage of 15 year old bourbons from a collection of old and rare Widow Jane barrels.
After painstakingly selecting each barrel for its depth of flavor, the bourbon is finished in hard-to-source, Amburana wood casks.
Over the past few years, we have set aside a selection of old and rare barrels. Upon identifying a magnificent range, we began a meticulous blending process to create the next edition of The Vaults. True to Widow Jane, these barrels are married together only ever in hyper small batches.
The result is a bourbon unparalleled in its complexity, yet rarer still for its age. This luxuriant whiskey, once married, is then finished in barrels raised with Amburana wood. Also known as ‘Brazilian Oak’,
Amburana grows in the dry jungles of Brazil and Argentina. A challenging environment with poor soil and irregular rainfall lead to slow growth and limited availability. Amburana wood is renown for its unexpected combination of warm spices, floral, and tropical notes. Finishing in Amburana casks produces a bourbon as remarkably smooth and complex as the wood itself. The barrels for The Vaults 2024 release have been intentionally selected to match the complexity and striking flavors of this special, Amburana wood.
Widow Jane Bourbon
Widow Jane Bourbon, a New York-based distillery, has a history rooted in artisanal distilling and a connection to the Rosendale Mines, a historic limestone mine in upstate New York. The company, founded in 2012, is named after the mine’s previous owner, Mr. A.J. Snyder, and his beloved wife, Jane, who was well-loved by the local community. The distillery sources pure, limestone-filtered water from the mine for its whiskeys, which is a key element of their unique flavor profile.
