Angel's Envy Small Batch 100 Proof Port Finish Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey 750mL

Please Note: This is 100 proof travel retail edition not the standard 43% version.

Angel’s Envy Kentucky Straight Bourbon is finished in port wine casks for an award-winning spirit. We guide each batch’s conditioning, blending our handcrafted bourbon in small batches of 8 to 12 barrels at a time.

It’s typically aged for up to 6 years. While we lose about 5% of the spirit each year to evaporation, or “the Angel’s Share,” what’s left behind after we’re done is truly worthy of envy.

Once it’s deemed ready, we finish our bourbon in ruby port wine casks, which adds subtly distinct flavour nuances that enhance the whiskey without challenging it. Our port finishing process lasts between three to six months, depending on taste.

We use 60-gallon ruby port barrels made from French oak and imported directly from Portugal. This creates a whiskey of unprecedented smoothness, sweetness and balance.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: Subtle vanilla, raisins, maple syrup and toasted nuts.

Palate: Vanilla, ripe fruit, maple syrup, toast and bitter chocolate.

Finish: Clean and lingering sweetness with a hint of Madeira that slowly fades.

"I picked this bottle up in the airport on the way back from Germany. I didn’t have too much of an expectation, but this one just clicked for me. Perfect balance of heat and sweet, nothing overwhelming, just well-rounded. It was definitely the smoothest. This was actually my first time trying it and I originally thought it was Triple Oak (my previous favorite of the Angel’s Envy bottles)." - /r/bourbon (user: RamRunner23)

"An excellent bourbon with good body and depth. Pleasantly drying with wood in the aftertaste, leaving a long, tart impression. Additional port aging made it somehow tart and added new notes to the same type of bourbon." - DistiLesha, WhiskyBase
