Angel’s Envy Cask Strength (2012 Release)

A limited-edition (600 bottles) cask strength version of Angel’s Envy. More alcohol and more portwood influence than that standard release. Rich and lush in texture with a sweet personality. Notes of ripe berried fruit maple syrup honeyed tangerine vanilla and background spice. Distinctive with a soothing velvety finish. I’d prefer less port influence more aligned with the standard release but it’s still a very enjoyable bourbon. Best after dinner with a cigar.
