    My wife and I love AE so this was a must grab. It's only a once a year thing so why not haha. Registered the code on the card that comes with it and they sent us a piece of a barrel that was used for the Cask Strength bottles. I remember subscribing to this channel around a year or so ago and there were only 11K subscribers I believe and to see it reach 25K is pretty neat. Congratulations!

    Yeah $190 is alot, but worth it. IT keeps the secondary prices in check. Packaging is 10/10, quality is 10/10, conversation piece 10/10. With the limited availability on this, if they sold it for $100 it would all get bought up and be on secondary for $300 if not more. Also, this is available and can be bought at retail. BTAC is not available at retail.

    i had the 2016 release and its one of my favorite bottles ive ever had, and it evolved in the bottle; the neck pour was the worst nip out of the thing and it was pretty damn good, and the thing you say about getting something new every time you go back was absolutely my experience; the 2016 one was all fruit (red grapes, pineapple, oranges) wow it was so good
    (side note im huge into wine casks AND huge into overproof so i might be a demographic of one)

    I have had a few pours of the 2017 Angel's Envy Cask Strength and it is really good! I agree about the price point though, it's not an easy decision to make to throw down that much cash on one bottle. Great review as always!

    Maybe with the high price they are trying to eliminate the secondary market for it. If they sold it for $125 it would probably get bought up and be selling for $250 on the secondary market. I think Casters had it listed for about $400 at one point.

    If you don’t wanna pay for the box, try and find a store pick. They are usually around 105 to 115 proof and it’s just a bottle of no box and they usually run about 100 bucks. Way better value in my opinion and as beautiful as the boxes it’s just not worth the extra basically $100 just for a box. Although I will say that especially for people that aren’t enthralled in the scene wooden box with the beautiful engravings definitely catches peoples attention and creates a better experience just on the expectation set by such a beautiful box

    Found a nice alternative to the Cask Strength that should please the proof lovers. Total Wine store pick at 108 proof.. To me it is the perfect balance and certainly better than the standard 86.6.

    I really like the normal Angles Envy. To me it's very good. I'd like to try the rye Angel but the cast strength at $190 is a bit much.

    Adding a few drops and waiting for 10 minutes is a thing? Usually I’ll add one drop and give it a swirl. I’ve heard less is more with the water droplets. Would you recommend the 10 minute wait and why?

    Off a blind tasting email I sent last month, if this whiskey was a blind and then you separately have this uncorking you can compare your comments between the 2 in the episode when you learn what the blind bourbons were.

    So, that’s what was in the box? Kevin Spacey sent Brad Pitt a bottle of Angel’s Envy? ...But he seemed so upset... Brad Pitt must not like Port finished Bourbon very much. I consider a bottle of whiskey a great gift, so his response seems like an overreaction to me. But, what do I know? Hollywood, am I right?
