Angel's Envy Cask Strength 10 Year Old, New American Oak & Port Cask, Batch No. C14, 2025, 61.3%

The contrast between rich bourbon spice and layered port fruit gives this a clear point of interest, while mature oak carries through to the finish. I like that the fruit is described alongside spice and oak rather than standing alone; it suggests a fuller, more structured character than simple sweetness. The long, warming, oak-led finish sounds appealing, though the emphasis on oak may make this less about delicate fruit than a lighter style.
