Louisville Angel’s Envy Port-Finished Bourbon<\/h2>\n

You might hear a bit more about bourbon this year as we’re heading to Louisville in October for the Les Dames d’Escoffier International<\/a><\/strong> conference and there’s research to do ahead of time. In preparation, we’ve been sampling the Louisville-based Angel’s Envy Port Finished Bourbon<\/a><\/strong> this month. Angel’s Envy is among the first American whiskey producers to employ a secondary finishing process, in this case, Port barrels, across its portfolio, and we are digging the smoothness of what can be a little bit of a wilder spirit. Jump down for a recipe for a Manhattan.<\/p>\n

“The team possesses a deep respect for the craft,” says Georgene DaDan, Vice President, and General Manager. “Everyone at the distillery is meticulous about the details and passionate about making quality American whiskey and Kentucky Straight Bourbon. Our dedicated team is always experimenting with bringing unique and exciting whiskeys to its fans”.<\/p>\n

Angel’s Envy produces finished whiskeys typically aged four to six years in new, charred white oak barrels then blended to meet their ideal flavour profile. In the final stages of production, Angel’s Envy bourbon is finished for up to six additional months in port barrels from Portugal and then blended again once the taste is perfected.<\/p>\n

“Angel’s Envy opened the doors to its Brand Home, the first full-production whiskey distillery in downtown Louisville, in 2016. Since its inception the brand has always looked ahead to the innovations that will move the industry forward while still honouring the traditions of American whiskey,” says DaDan. “It’s inspiring to see the brand grow and amass an international following and it’s a testament to the quality of the liquid. We’re excited to see what’s next as we continue to build and we’re so happy to be able to make Angel’s Envy widely available in Canada.”<\/p>\n

This Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey is finished in Port Wine Barrels and is 86.6 proof (43.3% ABV). On the nose, it offers notes of subtle vanilla, raisins, maple syrup and toasted nuts. On the palate, notes of vanilla, ripe fruit, maple syrup, toast and bitter chocolate are present before it finishes with a clean and lingering sweetness and a hint of Madeira that slowly fades.<\/p>\n

Angel’s Envy Kentucky Straight Bourbon can be purchased at retailers across Canada for approximately $80 (price may vary by province or retailer). For more information visit www.angelsenvy.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n
