Angel’s Envy Cask Strength Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey is a well-regarded distillery known for its innovative approach to whiskey making. Their Cask Strength Straight Rye Whiskey Finished in Sauternes & Toasted Oak Casks is a premium offering that showcases their commitment to craftsmanship and experimentation.
This particular whiskey begins with a base of straight rye whiskey, which brings its signature spicy and robust character to the blend. What sets it apart is the finishing process. After aging, the whiskey is transferred to casks that previously held Sauternes wine, a sweet French wine known for its complex flavors. This finishing period allows the whiskey to absorb additional layers of flavor from the wine-soaked wood, adding nuances of sweetness, fruitiness, and depth.
The whiskey undergoes additional aging in toasted oak casks, which impart rich caramelized notes and enhance the overall complexity of the spirit.
The result is a cask strength rye whiskey that offers a harmonious balance of spicy rye character, fruity sweetness from the Sauternes casks, and rich, toasty undertones from the oak. It’s a unique and luxurious expression that appeals to whiskey connoisseurs and enthusiasts alike.
