"When I started Angel's Envy with my father,our goal was to create a product that honored the legacy of Kentucky Straight Bourbon while also expanding on that tradition in our own way," said ANGEL'S ENVY Co-founder and Chief Innovation Officer Wes Henderson.

It is blended in small batches of eight to twelve barrels at a time and aged for up to six years,then finished in 60-gallon ruby port wine casks made from French oak and imported directly from Portugal.
