Angel’s Envy wedding cocktails are a match made in bourbon bliss
When Angel’s Envy paved the way for secondary finishes of bourbon and whiskey, some people wondered if that concept would find its place in the liquor industry. As many people have come to appreciate, that willingness to find a perfect food and beverage pairing that might not seem like a match made in heaven has become a happily ever after moment. Honoring that bourbon bliss, Angel’s Envy wedding cocktails toast to that perfect pairing of flavor and intrigue.
Bourbon and whiskey drinkers tend to have a flavor preference. Some embrace the smoky, leathery, earthy notes that seem to bring old world history. Others lean towards fruity, sweeter, or even lighter preferences. Whether that spirit is paired with a food or drunk on its own, people often turn to a signature spirit.
Angel’s Envy bourbon has the three signature releases, Port Finish, Rum Finish, and Triple Oak. The most commonly drunk is the Port Finish. Those port wine barrels add subtle sweetness to the liquor. Notes of vanilla, chocolate and even maple syrup make this bourbon whiskey appreciated by a wide range of palates.
Recently, Angel’s Envy shared some wedding cocktail suggestions. Since many couples appreciate a signature sipper for the big day, these beverages would be perfect for a happy hour celebration. Additionally, the specialty cocktail could become an anniversary tradition. Bubbles might sparkle but bourbon has the depth to stand the test of time.
