This is an exclusive Angel's Envy Private Selection single barrel Kentucky straight bourbon, hand selected by Liquor on Broadway and bottled just for us. Angel's Envy was founded by the late, legendary Master Distiller Lincoln Henderson, an inaugural Kentucky Bourbon Hall of Fame inductee, and his son Wes Henderson, and the brand built its reputation on the art of finishing. Its signature bourbon is aged in new charred American oak, then transferred to ruby Port wine barrels imported from the Douro region of Portugal for a secondary finish that adds depth, sweetness and complexity. Through the Private Selection program, retailers are invited to choose their own individual barrel and have it bottled at a higher proof than the standard release, capturing the fullest, most concentrated expression of the Angel's Envy style. Because every barrel is finished in its own single Port pipe, no two selections are alike, and this one is unique to Liquor on Broadway. Our barrel is bottled at a robust 110 proof, the highest proof Angel's Envy bottles their single barrels at, built on a mash bill of 72 percent corn, 18 percent rye and 10 percent malted barley. It pours a deep, rich amber and opens with an inviting nose of vanilla, maple syrup, ripe fruit and toasted oak. The palate is rich and layered, weaving caramel, dark cherry, honey, vanilla, brown sugar and baking spice with the signature mulled wine sweetness the Port finish imparts, and the finish is smooth and warming with lingering Port wine sweetness and oak. A genuinely exclusive, higher proof, single barrel expression, it is a treat for any bourbon lover and a proud Liquor on Broadway pick. Sip it neat, give it time to open, and add a few drops of water to unlock its full character.
