Angel's Envy is a Kentucky-based bourbon producer founded in 2006 by the Brown family, who have deep roots in American whiskey distilling. The distillery focuses exclusively on bourbon production, employing a finish-aging technique that has become their defining characteristic. Their approach involves maturing bourbon in secondary casks after the initial whiskey maturation is complete, a practice less common in Kentucky bourbon production.
The distillery's signature method uses port wine casks for finishing their straight bourbon whiskey, which imparts additional complexity and sweetness to the spirit. This secondary aging differentiates their product from traditional Kentucky bourbons that rely solely on the standard charred American oak barrel maturation. The port finish adds layer and softness to the whiskey's profile, making it accessible while maintaining the structure expected of a full bourbon.
The current range includes their Straight Bourbon Whiskey finished in port casks, which represents their core offering and the foundation of their production philosophy. This product demonstrates their commitment to the finishing technique and remains the centerpiece of their portfolio.
