Angel’s Envy Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey Finished in Port Wine Barrels
In Partnership with Angel’s Envy
Price: AUD$94
Angel’s Envy does things differently. While there are strict rules in place that dictate the way bourbon is made in the USA, this innovative distillery from Louisville has found a way to push the envelope, combining the heritage of American bourbon with the kind of finishing techniques deployed in Scottish whisky making to create something truly extraordinary.
An undeniable demonstration of this comes in the form of this Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey Finished in Port Wine Barrels. We guarantee it’s unlike any bourbon you’ve tried before. After undergoing an aging process of four to six years in new American White Oak barrels, it is then finished for up to six additional months in port casks sourced from Portugal’s Douro region. The resulting flavour profile is a spellbinding mix of ripe fruit, baking spice, and oak that can be enjoyed neat, on the rocks, or in a cocktail. It’s a perfect gift for the discerning whiskey fan.

Things to Consider for Last-Minute Gifts
Regarding last-minute gift ideas, simply wrapping a bow on a new wallet isn’t enough (although we’d all love that). If you want to get the special occasion right, there are a few things you need to consider:
- Price: Perhaps the most obvious consideration, the price will inevitably play a factor in your purchasing decision. While you may want to splash out for a significant birthday or gifting event, you’ll often aim around the $50-$100 mark for most gifts. In the fitness world, however, gifts don’t exactly come cheap. Don’t be afraid to shop around for the best price to get the most out of your gift idea.
- Shipping: If you select one of the last-minute gifts on this list, consider the shipping time for your retailer. There is no point snagging a great last-minute gift if it won’t arrive in time.
