Angel's Envy Bourbon
$61.49
Angel's Envy Bourbon is finished in Port Casks before being bottled at 43.3%.
Producer Description
“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 flavor 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.”
Angel's Envy Triple Oak Bourbon
$62.99
Sometimes two oaks just isn't enough. For those times, there is Angel's Envy Triple Oak.
That's right, Angel's Envy has officially entered the Oak Wars!
This Bourbon is bottled at 46% after being finished in a combination of French Oak, Chinkapin Oak, and Hungarian Oak.
Could this cask an oak escalation? Will Woodford Reserve retaliate with a Quadruple Oak offering? Perhaps a Jim Beam Quintuple Oak will be introduced? Where will it end?
Producer Description
"The artistry of Angel’s Envy Triple Oak lies in how each barrel’s character enhances the blend. The French oak brings the strongest flavor of all, providing hints of baking spices, chocolate, and cinnamon. It is complemented by the Chinkapin oak, a seasoned local Kentucky oak, which adds notes of caramel, vanilla, and a rich coffee layer. The Hungarian Oak balances the three, providing depth while uniting the finishes into one balanced flavor profile."
Benromach Aged 40 Years 2022 Batch 1 57.
$2,159.99
The 2022 edition of Benromach 40 Year is bottled at an impressive 57.6% after maturing in the "finest sherry casks". For a lot of companies that would be marketing fluff, but Benromach is owned by G&M, so that statement carries a fair bit of weight... it also isn't surprising! 91.22pts Whiskybase & 92pts Whisky Fun!
