ICYMI, Angel’s Envy recently released its first-ever unfinished whiskey: the Angel’s Envy Cask Strength Bottled-in-Bond Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey. This release marks the distillery’s first foray into the world of unfinished whiskey.
Angel’s Envy Cask Strength Bottled-in-Bond bourbon unites the historic Bottled-in-Bond distinction with modern cask strength boldness through a lower barrel entry proof and meticulous blending by Master Distiller Owen Martin, artfully achieving exactly 100 proof.
This whiskey is at the forefront of innovation as it steps outside the finishing process to examine flavor through a different lens. It celebrates the historic Bottled in Bond Act of 1897 while allowing the liquid to shine without adding water — a process the Angel’s Envy team started in 2018.
The final bourbon presents lightly caramelized sugars and vanilla wafers on the nose with a hint of banana pudding. It’s sweet and balanced on the palate with notes of honey latte, light fruit syrup, and toasted oak. Fading gently, the finish is rounded and soft for drinkers.
Pro tip: It’s available exclusively at the Angel’s Envy Distillery in downtown Louisville.
