The advantages of wooden barrels were evident — not only were they less fragile than clay vessels, but their cylindrical shape allowed them to be rolled rather than carried across short distances. As settlers along the Nile quickly realized, however, barrels made from wooden staves imparted a unique color and flavor profile to the liquids stored within.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eEagle Rare 10 Year Old Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey was matured for a minimum of ten years in new, American oak casks under the intense, Kentucky sun. As a result of its decade-long beauty rest, the bourbon has a golden honey color, along with an aroma of gentle toast, fresh tobacco, and bananas. The aroma gives way to notes of chocolate, almonds, melons, raisins and dried fruits on the palate, which are complemented by a subtle vanilla undertone. The finish is long and fierce, with hints of roasted nuts and corn.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eEagle Rare 10 Year Old earned a score of 96 points from \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWine Enthusiast\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e and 95 points from Robert Parker.

We guide each batch’s conditioning, blending our handcrafted bourbon in small batches of 8 to 12 barrels at a time.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIt’s typically aged for up to 6 years. While we lose about 5% of the spirit each year to evaporation, or “the Angel’s Share,” what’s left behind after we’re done is truly worthy of envy.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOnce it’s deemed ready, we finish our bourbon in ruby port wine casks, which adds subtly distinct flavor nuances that enhance the whiskey without challenging it. Our port finishing process lasts between three to six months, depending on taste.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWe use 60-gallon ruby port barrels made from French oak and imported directly from Portugal. This creates a whiskey of unprecedented smoothness, sweetness and balance.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Eagle Rare","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52011702092097,"sku":null,"price":179.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0997\/7223\/6097\/files\/angelsEagle_b2150a64-8814-4b56-a5be-3c6a829374d6.png?v=1784845579","url":"https:\/\/heritagereserves.com\/products\/eagle-rare-angels-envy-port-barrel-bourbon-whiskey-dlw-store-pick-2-bottle-combo","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
