Angel’s Envy has expanded its Signature Series with the release of Angel’s Envy Triple Oak. The release marks the first new addition to the brand’s core range in over 10 years – the Angel’s Envy Port Wine Cask Finish was launched in 2011, followed by the Caribbean Rum Casks Finish in 2013.

Angel’s Envy Triple Oak is a Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey finished in an exciting combination of oak casks: Hungarian, Chinkapin, and French Oak. It will be available nationwide from October 1st, 2024, with an SRP of $74.99. 

Oak Influences 

The team at Angel’s Envy spent time experimenting with various compositions of oak-finished bourbons to create the new expression. They found that the French oak was the more dominant of the three, bringing notes of “baking spices, chocolate, and cinnamon.” 

Staying true to their Kentucky home, the team also included a bourbon finished in Chinkapin oak – a locally sourced and seasoned Kentucky oak, that provides “notes of caramel, vanilla, and a rich coffee layer.” 

Finally, the Hungarian oak provides “nuance and depth while uniting the finishes into one dynamic taste.”

“I’m thrilled we are making a mark on the brand’s Signature Series with Angel’s Envy Triple Oak,” says Owen Martin, Master Distiller at Angel’s Envy. “When I joined the team, we aimed to craft something unique to round out our portfolio. With the oak barrel finishing, we carefully selected barrels that complement each other beautifully. The result is a must-have addition for bourbon drinkers, whether they’re new to the category or consider themselves aficionados.”

The Golden Oak Cocktail 

In celebration of the launch of the Triple Oak, the Global Ambassador for Brand Education has dreamed up the perfect pour, named the Golden Oak cocktail

Ingredients: 

  • 1.5 oz of Angel’s Envy Triple Oak
  • 4.5 oz Crisp, Dry Sparkling Apple Cider


Method:

  • Combine all into a chilled highball glass, add ice, and stir lightly to combine. Garnish with a long lemon peel.

Of course, the whiskey is also great for a neat pour, served on the rocks. Our very own Todd Wiesel was lucky enough to try an advanced sample of Angel’s Envy Triple Oak. You can read his review here
