This limited-edition release from Widow Jane takes their signature 10-year-old straight bourbon and finishes it in barrels that previously held tequila from Tequila Ocho. The result is a unique cross-category expression that blends classic Kentucky bourbon richness with subtle agave-driven brightness.
The extended aging provides depth and structure, while the tequila cask finish introduces fresh herbal and citrus nuances—making this a standout for collectors and whiskey drinkers looking for something different.

What Makes It Special
This release bridges two worlds—bourbon and tequila—without overpowering either. The tequila cask finish is nuanced rather than dominant, adding complexity instead of novelty. It’s especially appealing for your audience that already appreciates tequila and wants crossover bottles, and it photographs extremely well for e-commerce given the story behind the collab.
A strong pick for collectors, gifting, or customers looking to explore finished bourbons beyond the typical wine or sherry cask profiles.
