About this product
Kentucky’s Finishing Masterpiece.
Angel’s Envy Port Finish Bourbon is a smooth, expressive spirit that brings together classic Kentucky bourbon craftsmanship and the rich sweetness of ruby port casks. Crafted in small batches—typically 8 to 12 barrels—the bourbon is initially aged for up to six years in American oak and then finished in French oak ruby port barrels sourced from Portugal for three to six months. This dual ageing journey infuses the whiskey with depth, elegance, and layers of flavour that set it apart in the world of bourbon.
What makes Angel’s Envy truly special is the artistry behind the finishing process. Instead of overpowering the bourbon, the port influence gently enriches it, adding hints of ripe berries, dried fruits, and subtle sweetness. The result is a whiskey that feels both familiar and excitingly new, a bourbon that respects tradition but isn’t afraid to innovate. Its glowing copper hue is as inviting as an Irish sunset, making it the kind of bottle that deserves pride of place on your shelf.
In Ireland, where whiskey heritage runs deep, this bourbon feels like a natural guest at the table. Its fruit-driven character and touch of spice make it a spirit that Irish whiskey drinkers can embrace with ease, while its richness makes it equally appealing to bourbon lovers searching for something a little different. Whether shared among friends after dinner or poured as the base of a cocktail, Angel’s Envy has the kind of balance and warmth that fits right into our culture of hospitality.
It is more than just a bourbon—it’s a conversation starter, a bridge between worlds. It speaks of Kentucky traditions, Portuguese craftsmanship, and now, a welcome presence in the Irish market. For those who enjoy spirits with a story to tell, Angel’s Envy offers a glass full of character, charm, and quiet innovation.
Why we love it:
We love Angel’s Envy Port Finish Bourbon for its elegance and pioneering spirit—blending tradition with innovative finishing. The port cask influence adds a subtle fruit-forward depth without overpowering the bourbon’s signature smoothness. It’s versatile enough for classics like Old Fashioned or Negroni yet approachable for neat sipping. Bourbon fans in Ireland will appreciate its refined character and the thoughtful nod to shared flavours of dried fruits and rich dessert notes.
