Angel's Envy Distillery Tour Port Barrels on East Main
A downtown Louisville tour of bourbon finished in port wine barrels, with dinner a short ride away.
Angel's Envy finishes its bourbon in port wine barrels, and its distillery sits on East Main Street across from Louisville Slugger Field, in a renovated brick building at the east end of downtown. The brand was founded by Lincoln Henderson, a longtime master distiller, and his son Wes, and the Louisville distillery opened in 2016.
It is a short ride from NuLu's restaurants and from Whiskey Row, so it fits neatly into an evening in town.
