Angel’s Envy announced the release of their 12th annual cask strength bourbon on Thursday, as well as the launch of their very first cask strength rye whiskey. The two expressions are the first Angel’s Share releases from master distiller Owen Martin, who joined the team at the Louisville-based distillery in Sept. 2022.
Each year, Angel’s Envy’s Cask Strength program offers a new whiskey expression produced from noteworthy barrels selected from the Louisville rickhouse. The whiskey from these barrels then undergoes extensive finishing in port wine barrels selected anew each year, leading to whiskies that deliver unique aromas and flavors with each release. Historically, the distillery’s Cask Strength program releases have only included bourbons, but this year, the distillery will be debuting their first limited-edition cask strength rye.
