The previous bourbon releases from the highly acclaimed and award-winning Cask Strength program have featured Angel’s Envy’s traditional Ruby Port Wine finish. This year’s annual release offers a new spin by introducing a Tawny Port Wine finish blended with the traditional Ruby Port Wine finish to create a bourbon with extraordinary depth.
Master Distiller Owen Martin and the best-in-class production team blended the mellow finish from Tawny Port barrels with the base bourbon’s heat to integrate seamlessly with the trademark Ruby Port, crafting a rich and complex profile that honors the Cask Strength tradition. The robust oak and toffee from the bourbon harmonize with the hallmark Ruby Port character, while Tawny Port adds a nutty, caramelized fruit quality that bridges the two flavors. Using the Solera Method for the first time at ANGEL’S ENVY, they created a continuous aging process that ensures consistent flavor, resulting in a bourbon of extraordinary depth.
Bottled at barrel proof, Maker’s Mark Cask Strength ranges from 108 to 114 proof depending on the barrels. Surprisingly smooth, this bourbon retains the signature, front-of-the-palate flavors of Maker’s Mark while amping up the vanilla and rich oak notes.
Aroma: Big oak, vanilla and caramel
Taste: Robust, warm texture with notes of caramel, vanilla and spice
Finish: Long finish on front of tongue, harmonious with no harsh bitterness
A sherry cask matured stalwart of Speyside, the 18 year old Macallan has been a luxurious favourite for decades. This edition, still matured exclusively in Oloroso sherry casks.
Dad’s Hat, a Pennsylvania based rye whiskey distillery are attempting to revive the reputation of Pennsylvania Rye by creating a small batch whiskey with a focus on quality and flavour.
Our release is a 6 Year Old bottled at natural cask strength, and we’’ve filled just 289 bottles.
Rye whiskey was previously the whiskey of choice in the US, with Pennsylvania’s distillers making millions of gallons a year.
During prohibition, bootleggers created poorly made substitutes for Pennsylvania Rye, which was very damaging to its reputation. After prohibition passed it unfortunately never quite recovered, with people turning to Bourbon instead.
The distillery, founded in 2011, creates an ‘old-school’ Pennsylvania style Rye – 80% grain, 20% malt (15% barley, 5% rye malt), no corn, and a sweet mash recipe. They use local farms for their grains, temperature controlled fermenters, doing a five-seven day low and slow ferments to develop a complex flavour.
NOSE
Rye bread and allspice, but then very fruity! Dried fruit; cranberries, apricots, and chocolate covered raisins. The spices return with a hint of mint, and some wood char.
TASTE
Silky mouthfeel. Fruity and spicy with sour cherries, and cranberries. Woody spices; clove, a hint of cinnamon, and charred oak. A medium length finish that’s full of chocolate.
