Angel's Envy Oloroso Cask Finish. Image courtesy Angel's Envy. This is the first new expression from Angel’s Envy since 2013, and is also their first Bourbon finished in Oloroso Sherry casks instead of Port wine casks. The nose has notes of dried fruits, fresh berries, and hints of caramel, brown sugar, and vanilla. The taste is thick, fruity, and nectar-like at first. The spices kick in slowly with hints of clove and white pepper balanced by caramel, dried fruits, and honey – leading into a long finish that fades away gently. Very nice. (February, 2019)
