Widow Jane Rye Oak & Applewood Aged is a rye whiskey finished in a unique combination of ex-bourbon oak and applewood casks. This results in a rye whiskey with a complex and layered flavor profile that is both bold and inviting. Rye spice is balanced by sweetness from the applewood, with hints of vanilla and baking spice from the bourbon casks.

Description

Aroma

Initial Impression: Look for a youthful vibrancy with hints of citrus and green apple.

Deeper Sniffs: As you delve deeper, expect baking spices like cardamom, cloves, and star anise to emerge, along with a touch of shaved oak for a hint of vanilla and toast. Some reviewers also detect a subtle floral note of apple blossom.

Palate

First Sip: The rye makes its presence known with a burst of peppery spice. Shaved oak complements this with a touch of dryness.

Midpalate: The sweetness arrives, courtesy of the applewood cask. It expresses itself as notes of baked apple, orange peel, and perhaps even a hint of sweet corn. Nutmeg and orange zest can also be present, adding complexity.

Finish

Lingering Flavors: The rye spice gradually subsides, leaving behind a pleasant warmth. Apple notes take center stage, with hints of red apple and dried apple mingling with a touch of blood orange for a citrusy brightness. A subtle sweetness of caramel lingers alongside the fruit, creating a well-rounded finish.
