The Angel’s Envy Cask Strength Bottled-in-Bond Bourbon (Limited Release) is a marriage of heritage and daring innovation, this bourbon achieves Bottled-in-Bond legal precision at true cask strength. Smooth and rich with baked fruit, caramel, and warm spice—an expert execution of tradition and craft.
Origins & Craftsmanship
-
A first-of-its-kind for Angel’s Envy: the brand’s first-ever cask-strength, truly un-finished bourbon release.
-
Crafted under the Bottled-in-Bond Act of 1897, meaning it’s from one distillery and season, aged in a bonded warehouse for at least four years, and bottled at exactly 100 proof (50% ABV).
-
Ingeniously blended: 27 barrels filled at 103 proof and 2 barrels at 125 proof from the same distillation season were combined—no water added—to exactly hit the 100 proof mark.
-
Aged nearly six years in new charred American oak, this expression omits the typical port barrel finishing that Angel’s Envy is known for.
Tasting Profile
-
Nose: Inviting aromas of toasted sugar, vanilla wafer, and a light hint of banana bread.
-
Palate: Smooth and layered—think honey latte, citrus zest, and cornbread, with a soft oak presence that highlights a clean grain character.
-
Finish: Rounded and easy-going; mellow oak and gentle spice carry the finish without residual heat.
Enthusiasts note additional depth: baked apples, dried apricots, brown sugar, caramel, accented by spices such as anise, cinnamon, cloves, and black pepper, finishing with light tannic dryness.
