Widow Jane Bourbon Decadence is a bourbon from Widow Jane, the whiskey house based in Brooklyn, New York. The expression is built around a dessert-like profile, leaning into rich, sweet notes while keeping a solid backbone of charred oak, and is bottled at 91 proof.
The nose opens with sugared pecans and maple syrup, joined by a touch of birch beer spice and charred oak undertones. On the palate, maple and caramel lead into toasted pecan, vanilla and gentle baking spice, finishing long and warm with oak and lingering sweetness.
A natural choice for bourbon drinkers with a sweet tooth, Decadence works well as an after-dinner pour sipped neat or over a large cube, and it adds depth to an Old Fashioned or Manhattan.

Why Liquor Geeks recommends it
Decadence is a bourbon that leans fully into dessert territory without losing its footing. Widow Jane, the Brooklyn whiskey house, builds it on a corn-dominant mash bill and bottles it at 91 proof, and the result reads like a pastry case: sugared pecans and maple syrup on the nose, a little birch beer spice, then vanilla, burnt sugar and cinnamon bark on the palate before a long finish of brown sugar, shortbread and mellow tobacco. Charred oak keeps all that sweetness anchored, so it never turns cloying. It suits the bourbon drinker with a sweet tooth, the host looking for a memorable after-dinner pour, and the collector curious about New York bourbon, especially given the producer's use of limestone mineral water from the Rosendale Mines. We carry it because it is a clear, characterful take on a sweet bourbon profile that works neat, over a large cube, or stirred into an Old Fashioned or Manhattan, and it earns its place in a side-by-side tasting.
Pairs well with
- Pecan pie — The bourbon's sugared pecan and maple notes echo the pie's nutty, syrupy filling.
- Shortbread and butter cookies — Buttery, crumbly cookies mirror the shortbread and brown sugar that linger on the finish.
- After-dinner tasting with friends — Its layered nose of pecan, maple and birch beer spice gives guests plenty to compare and discuss alongside other bourbons.

Both work. Sipping it neat or over a single large cube shows off its layers of pecan, maple and vanilla, while its sweetness and oak backbone add richness to an Old Fashioned or a Manhattan. It also makes a strong pick for a comparative whiskey tasting.
