Before we dive deep into the dram, let’s get one sip straight. Tawny Port Wine (excuse us, if we’re pointing out the obvious) is usually made from the ‘red’ variety of grapes and aged in wood barrels.

With that out of the way, Angel’s Envy is no stranger to ‘less conventional’ aging and/or a totally individual approach to innovation. Still, the concept itself is seductive and unexpected. This 2020 release features a lush 10-years-old Whiskey comes in that 10-month stretch in Port Barrels. It’s on the firmer side, but the fruit on the palate balances it out and presents us with a tipple one wants to turn to regularly.
For quality time and an unmatched character.

Limestone Branch Distillery, which produces Yellowstone Bourbon, also makes Minor Case Bourbon and Bowling & Burch Gin.
Bourbons have very prominent notes of vanilla, as American White Oak is naturally high in vanillins.
Bourbon rules refer to manufacturing methods rather than location. Bourbon must be matured in new and charred American white oak casks for at least 2 years. If the bottle has no age statement, the Bourbon is at least 4 years old. No coloring or flavoring of any type is allowed, and the mash bill must contain at least 51% corn.

Pinhooking means purchasing and rearing a foal based on its pedigree and either selling it or turning it into a champ racing horse. The same idea is behind Pinhook Bourbon: they source young Whiskey to mature and blend it into a blue-ribbon sipping Bourbon.

Pinhook’s high-proof Bourbon won Gold at the 2019 San Francisco World Spirits Competition, while the Straight Rye Whiskey won Double Gold the following year. In 2021, their Bourbon War Vertical Series 5 Year and the 2021 Flagship Bourbon won a Gold Medal each, with a Double Gold going to their Tiz Rye Time Vertical Series 5 Year. Pinhook is evidently doing something right!
It is well known that the share of spirit that evaporates through the casks during aging - about 5% per year — is called “the angels share.” Upon sipping the first release, Lincoln Henderson is reported to have said that he finally got the better end of the deal over the angels. This the name.
