What it tastes like.

Aged in first-fill Bourbon casks, distilled from a rye mash and finished with new American Oak, this provides an intense flavour balanced with warm spice. Cut with limestone water from the legendary mines in Rosendale, NY and non-chill filtered for the deepest flavour. The aroma of cardamom, pineapple and orange, while the taste profile hints at maple, almond and apricot. The finish rounds out with white pepper and basswood. This is a spicy summer rye and makes some great cocktails. A good bitter or a splash of vermouth or ginger beer goes a long way. Tasting Notes: Nose: Clover honey, orange peel and tea. Taste: Brown sugar, white pepper and rye grain. Finish: Dried peach and almond biscuit

45.5% ABV

Bottle questions

Before you open it.

A few practical answers for storage, delivery, and choosing the right bottle.

How should I store it before opening?

Keep it somewhere cool, dark, and steady. Wine prefers cellar temperature; spirits are happier away from heat and direct sunlight.

How long will it keep once opened?

Wine changes quickly after opening; spirits and liqueurs generally hold longer if capped tightly and kept out of heat. If it is a special bottle, ask before opening and the team can give product-specific guidance.

Can I ask for a similar bottle?

Yes. Contact Caravan with this bottle name and the occasion; the team can suggest a close match, a safer gift, or a step up or down in price.

How is it packed for delivery?

Orders are packed in bottle-safe cartons. If anything arrives damaged or looks wrong, contact the team with your order number and a photo so they can sort the next step.

What about hot weather shipping?

The team avoids making one-size-fits-all promises around heat and carrier timing. For heat-sensitive or cellar bottles, contact Caravan before ordering and they can advise the safest dispatch window.

Why Caravan backs Widow Jane Distillery

New York

"Widow Jane was founded by Daniel Prieto Preston as a sister project to his Cacao Prieto chocolate factory in Red Hook, Brooklyn. The whiskey is proofed with mineral water from the Widow Jane Mine, a former limestone quarry near Rosendale in upstate New York that supplied stone for landmarks including the Statue of Liberty's pedestal.
