Cut with Widow Jane's limestone mine water from Upstate New York, it is bottled at 99 proof.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Vaults is Widow Jane's annual exploration of wood finishes on well-aged whiskey. For 2024, each barrel was painstakingly selected for depth of flavour and to match the complexity of Amburana, the so-called Brazilian oak that grows slowly in the dry jungles of Brazil and Argentina. Poor soil and irregular rainfall make the wood scarce, and it is renowned for an unexpected combination of warm spices, floral and tropical notes, especially a strong cinnamon character.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe result is a bourbon of unusual complexity. On the nose come amaretto cookie, fig leaf and cherry blossom, with caramel, wild berries and baking spice. The palate brings rosemary, cinnamon raisin and green tea, with hints of olive oil and roasted yam, leading to an exceptionally long finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWidow Jane is known for its use of limestone mine water from the Rosendale mines of New York, and The Vaults releases are among its most collectable bottlings. The bottle carries the batch and bottle details on its dark label.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is a fascinating bottle for anyone curious about how an exotic wood can transform an old bourbon, and a fine gift for a collector.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Amaretto cookie, fig leaf and cherry blossom, with caramel and wild berries.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rosemary, cinnamon raisin and green tea, with olive oil and roasted yam.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Exceptionally long.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Widow Jane\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Blend of Straight Bourbon Whiskeys\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExpression \/ Batch:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Vaults 2024\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAge:\u003c\/strong\u003e 15 years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProof \/ ABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 99 proof (49.5% ABV)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCask \/ Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Finished in Amburana wood casks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e United States (bottled in New York)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Enjoy It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSip it neat to appreciate the Amburana spice, or add a drop of water to open the floral notes.
