• T8ke's Tasting Notes: The quintessential rye king, these Piggyback barrels that are Vermont distilled are awesome crosses of quality and value - tons of big, bold, woody maple, herbal rye spice, toffee and black pepper that screams rye. At 6 years old and barrel strength, there's a rich palate, plenty of oak but without covering up sweet maple, peppy rye spice and an herbal note. Long finish, jammin' and lovely.

Overview of Widow Jane Black Opal 20 Year Old Bourbon
Age: 20 Years
Proof: 100 Proof (50% ABV)
This bourbon is a testament to the aging process, where two decades in barrels have imbued it with a depth of flavor and complexity that only time can achieve. The "Black Opal" name suggests rarity and value, much like the precious gemstone, highlighting the unique and exceptional nature of this bourbon.

Widow Jane is known for its meticulous curation of bourbons and its use of water from the Rosendale Mines of New York for proofing, which is renowned for its unique mineral profile. This water, combined with a two-decade maturation, would contribute to the bourbon's distinctive taste and mouthfeel.

Located in Brooklyn, New York, Widow Jane Distillery has carved out a niche for itself by producing bourbons and American whiskeys that are both innovative and deeply rooted in tradition. The distillery often sources and finishes bourbons in a way that emphasizes their unique qualities, making each release a reflection of both their sourcing acumen and finishing creativity.

The Widow Jane Black Opal 20 Year Old Bourbon, with its significant age and the distillery's reputation for quality, is likely to be a highly sought-after release among collectors and enthusiasts alike. Its rarity, combined with the craftsmanship behind its production, makes it a desirable addition to any collection and a bourbon to be savored on special occasions.

The 18th edition of the Parker's Heritage Collection® consists of 14-year-old Malt Whiskey aged in the upper floors of Rickhouses O and Q. Then, barrels that previously held Cognac were reconstructed to include a handful of new heavy toast staves. The Malt Whiskey was then rebarreled in the reconstructed barrels and aged for almost four months. Bottled at 107 proof without chill filtration, the rebarreling transforms the Malt Whiskey's earthy, herbal characteristics into complex notes of molasses, dark chocolate, and dried summer fruit.

Eagle Rare 10 Year Old - Lawrenceburg - 10 Year Old, 101 Proof [Wood Box]

Jefferson's Presidential Select 18 year

*Batch varies*

This release of double eagle very rare from 2023 (laser coded 2022).  This release contained 1000 bottles.

This very limited 20-year-old bourbon whiskey lives up to its name, maturing twice as long as the standard Eagle Rare 10-year-old bourbon and featuring two beautifully-sculpted crystal glass eagles in the Double Eagle decanter.

A true collectors’ item, Double Eagle Very Rare is presented in a luxurious silver box and crystal decanter. Very few bottles were produced, with an individually-numbered letter of authenticity included with each.

Back in the 1960s through the 80s, distilleries were having trouble selling their whiskey in bottles so they started creating unique bottlings through the use of Decanters. Old Crow, which was owned and produced by National Distillers created a full chess set of decanter bottles, complete with all pieces and the ability to send them postage to receive a carpeted chessboard as well. The whiskey inside is 86pf and age stated 10 years, but is among some of the highest rated whiskey by vintage enthusiasts that has ever been produced.  

Note: Old decanters could possibly have some minor leakage during transit.  We will do everything to prevent leakage but some is frequently expected and we cannot be held liable for minor leakage.  Major issues - please contact us (such as decanter breakage, significant leakage) and please have pictures/video available.  

It is a cask-strength 1996 Bourbon that has mellowed over 48 Kentucky seasons on the fifth floor of Rickhouse Y in Bardstown. The bottling was drawn from a lot of 68 carefully selected barrels, which were dumped in three "very small batches" of 22, 22 and 24 barrels each. This one is rich, with thick toffee, molasses, vanilla fudge, and Heath bar. It’s also well balanced, with underlying exotic spice, summer fruit, dusty corn, and tobacco to balance the sweeter notes. Long, soothing, finish. A nicely matured bourbon of character and pedigree.
