Brand History: A Henderson Family Legacy

Angel's Envy was founded by the late Lincoln Henderson, a legendary Master Distiller and member of the Bourbon Hall of Fame. He was a pioneer of secondary cask finishing, introducing the idea of aging bourbon in port wine barrels to create a smoother, more complex spirit. The annual Cask Strength release was Lincoln's passion project, representing the "angel's share" at its most magnificent. This special 10-year-old release for the 15th anniversary is a profound tribute to his enduring vision, carried on by his family.

Tasting Notes: A Symphony of Age, Bourbon, and Port

The extra aging of this 10-year-old Cask Strength release creates a remarkably deep and complex flavor profile:

• Nose: A decadent bouquet of rich dark fruit, with notes of blackberry jam, dried figs, and brandied cherry, beautifully layered with aromas of deep caramel, dark chocolate, and seasoned oak.

• Palate: A wonderfully rich, creamy, and viscous mouthfeel. A powerful wave of sweet port wine character washes over the palate with flavors of cherry cobbler and plum, which is perfectly balanced by mature notes of leather, pipe tobacco, and a robust, peppery rye spice.

• Finish: The finish is exceptionally long, warm, and satisfying. Lingering notes of sweet dark fruit, rich chocolate, and a final, sophisticated whisper of toasted nuts and complex oak.

• Q: What does a "Ruby Port cask finish" do to bourbon?
