Widow Jane: The Vaults 2019 — Wine Enthusiast / Kara Newman

The inaugural 2019 release used 20 selected Tennessee and Indiana barrels. The eight years refers to outdoor seasoning of wood before cask construction, not additional whiskey age. Finishing treatment: American oak casks made from wood air-seasoned eight years. Individual distilleries, grain origin and complete maturation itinerary are not disclosed. Current producer page describes the latest edition; use the dated sources for this record. MSRP is historical launch/review-era price, not a current retail quote.

Second review of the inaugural 14-year release; vanilla, dry oak and dilution-dependent mint/fruit/spice. Publication date is not release year.
