Hosts JMark and Miranda on Old Fashioned Football review Angel’s Envy Finished Rye as the final bottle in their October rye lineup. They discuss its 100 proof, 50% ABV profile, 95% rye mash bill, and how it’s finished 18 months in Caribbean rum casks after New American oak aging. They note the distillery is in downtown Louisville, Kentucky, and share brand background, including founder Lincoln Henderson and the origin of the name tied to the “angel’s share.”
On the nose, they rate it, describing strong sweet maple and marshmallow notes. Miranda rates the taste, citing sugared maple sweetness with rye spice and a toasty finish. They cover pricing variability, bottle design, other Angel’s Envy products, extensive distillery tours, and tease a future old fashioned cocktail review.
