"The famous limestone quarry in Rosendale, N.Y., supplied material to build many of the monuments that define America. In the 1800s, this town in the Hudson Valley produced half the cement used in North America and the material was used to build the foundation of the Brooklyn Bridge, the Empire State Building, and the 27,000-ton pedestal that the Statue of Liberty stands on."
"The Brooklyn-born brand was founded by Daniel Preston and Vince Oleson with a mission to make bourbon with a distinctly New York spin. Every element is carefully considered, from sourcing the best quality water to creating its own heirloom corn variety. From the brand's flagship 10-year bourbon to small-batch, special releases like the Borough Blend, Widow Jane's ever-expanding portfolio offers several expressions to taste the difference that thoughtful ingredient selection makes."
