About Angel's EnvyUnited States

Angel's Envy was co-founded in 2010 by Master Distiller Lincoln Henderson and his son Wes Henderson. In 2015 Bacardi bought Angel's Share Brands, the Louisville company behind Angel's Envy. In 2016 Angel's Envy opened its distillery at 500 E Main St in Louisville, Kentucky, the first full-production whiskey distillery on Whiskey Row since Prohibition. The brand is known for secondary finishing, with its core bourbon finished in port wine barrels and its rye finished in Caribbean rum casks. Its special release program, the Cellar Collection, began in 2019 with an Oloroso sherry finish.
