HAMILTON, Bermuda, Jan. 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — ANGEL’S ENVY®, the Louisville-based distiller that produces finished whiskeys, today announces Cellar Collection Series Volumes 1-3.

Launched in 2019, the Cellar Collection is ANGEL’S ENVY’S special release program led by Master Distiller Owen Martin.

Each expression within the Cellar Collection Series offers a unique tasting experience. ANGEL’S ENVY recommends sipping the expressions chronologically to enjoy the whiskies at their fullest potential.
- ANGEL’S ENVY Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey Finished in Oloroso Sherry Casks (100-proof; 50% ABV): With a sweet nose featuring hints of raisin and hazelnut, this bourbon has an oak-forward palate, distinct dryness from the sherry, and finishes with a shift from sweetness to lingering floral. ANGEL’S ENVY recommends sipping the expression neat.
- ANGEL’S ENVY Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey Finished in Tawny Port Wine Barrels (111.6-proof; 55.8% ABV): Boasting a nose of dry fruit and oak, this bourbon delivers black pepper, toasted nuts, delicate cinnamon spice, and a light, lingering finish reminiscent of dried fruit dipped in dark chocolate. ANGEL’S ENVY recommends sipping the expression neat.
- ANGEL’S ENVY Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey Finished in Madeira Casks (100-proof; 50% ABV): Caramelized banana, brown sugar, freshly baked raisins, almonds, and faint cherry notes define the nose of this bourbon. The palate is rich with toasted oak, grass, smoke, leather, chocolate, and dried cherries, culminating in a satisfying finish with notes of almonds and hazelnuts. ANGEL’S ENVY recommends sipping the expression neat.
