Angel's Envy Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey Finished in Port Wine Barrels 750ml

Barbara Chapman, La Bourbonessa: Take a perfectly balanced, gentle bourbon (86.6% proof) redolent of vanilla, sugar and the rich notes of ripe berries, present it in a heavenly lyre-shaped bottle adorned with a pair of wings, and you’ve created a whiskey worthy of the angels’ envy. This warmly copper-hued bourbon is a work of art, conceived by the late, legendary distiller Lincoln Henderson and his son, Wes. The Hendersons were creative pioneers in the now-widespread practice of finished bourbons. Angel’s Envy Port Finish is blended in small batches of 8-12 barrels at a time, typically aged up to 6 years before the additional finishing time of 3 to 6 months in 60 gallon French oak ruby port wine barrels imported from Portugal. The result is subtle luxury. Angel’s Envy is smooth, light and plainly so delicious it’s bound to please bourbon drinkers from newly minted bourbonites to seasoned aficionados. You’d be wise to have a bottle of Angel’s Envy wing its way to your bourbon shelf. Aft
