Angel's Envy Tawny Port Private Barrel is a single-barrel, Costco-exclusive selection of Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, produced by the Louisville Distilling Company. Founded by legendary Master Distiller Lincoln Henderson, Angel's Envy has built its reputation on an innovative barrel-finishing program that imparts distinctive complexity to its premium bourbons. This private barrel expression represents a Costco-selected single cask, chosen to highlight the distillery's signature tawny port finishing at cask strength.

This expression features a 10-year-old Kentucky straight bourbon first aged in new charred American oak barrels, then finished for approximately 10 months in hand-selected tawny port wine casks. The tawny port finishing adds a unique layer of dried fruit richness and vinous complexity that complements the bourbon's natural oak and grain character. As a barrel-strength, single-barrel selection, proof and tasting nuances vary slightly from cask to cask.

On the nose, pleasant oak and barrel char are underpinned by playful notes of strawberry, cotton candy, and raisins. The palate delivers black pepper, toasted nuts, clove, and delicate cinnamon spice with a hint of dried apricot. The finish is light and lingering, reminiscent of dried fruit dipped in dark chocolate.
