Ownership

Heaven Hill, a family-owned Kentucky distiller, acquired Widow Jane with the Samson & Surrey portfolio in 2022.

Why Watchlist

Widow Jane's site presents its Red Hook, Brooklyn home and Rosendale mine water but does not say where its whiskey is distilled. Its owner, Heaven Hill, states that the flagship 10-year sources distillate from Tennessee, Kentucky and Indiana.
