The Angel’s Envy Rye Whiskey Finished in Ice Cider Casks is a premium spirit for those looking for an option that doesn't hold back when it comes to premium ingredients, flavor and an unexpectedly innovative production process.
The spirit is crafted with its seven-year-old 95% rye that has been finished in ice cider casks sourced from Eden Specialty Ciders which is based out of Vermont. This is reported to impart a premium flavor profile that is at once crisp and fruity, but also bold, peppery and spicy.
The Angel’s Envy Rye Whiskey Finished in Ice Cider Casks is 107-proof and is limited to just 6,000 bottles that are priced at $250, but could vary according to the specific market they're found in.
