Angel’s Envy Cask Strength Rye 2023 Release Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey

Angel’s Envy Cask Strength Rye Whiskey Finished in Sauternes & Toasted Oak Casks        
The Angel's Envy 2023 Cask Strength Straight Rye Whiskey Finished in Sauternes & Toasted Oak Casks is not only a mouthful to say - it is the first-ever cask strength rye from Angel's Envy! Offered to select retailers in an estimated outrun of   5,500   bottles in Dec 2023, this highly limited and must-have collector's whiskey is an epic initiation bottling for recently appointed Master Distiller Owen Martin. AE 2023 Cask Strength Rye Sauternes & Toasted Oak is a blend of two select batches of sourced MGP distillate derived from a mash bill of 95% rye and 5% malted barley - initially aged for at least 5 years. One batch is then transferred and matured for a further 3 years in ex-Sauternes wine casks, while the other is finished in a marriage of American and French toasted oak barrels for 6 months. Masterfully combined and bottled at 57.2% ABV (114.4-proof), this ultra-premium straight rye explores aromas of sweet wine, chocolate, pears, and herbs over a palate of caramel, pepper, nougat, and oak with just a splash of vanilla.
