Widow Jane: Oak & Apple Wood Aged — 91 Proof — Wine Enthusiast / Kara Newman

Historical 91-proof whiskey matured in used bourbon barrels with applewood staves. The whiskey is not ten years old merely because the casks previously held ten-year bourbon. This record is distinct from the newer 93-proof Apple Wood Aged Rye. Stave treatment is recorded in Finishing Components; timing of a separate finishing stage is not verified.

45.5% ABV; blind tasting notes and used-bourbon-barrel/applewood maturation.
