Widow Jane bourbon grows in popularity
Market Watch, a financial website, recently publicized Widow Jane Decadence Bourbon. Although the name sounds like a character from the Beverly Hillbillies, Widow Jane is a Brooklyn-made brand of bourbon that was founded in 2012 and whose sales grew by 50 percent last year. Lisa Wicker, president and head distiller of Widow Jane, says, “This is bourbon with serious depth, structure and complexity, but with an amazingly creamy rich finish.” In other whiskeys, the company uses a proprietary variety of corn, called Baby Jane, to produce them.
