I would hope so too but somehow I doubt it. Would love to try it but not likely to chase it at that price even if I could get to the areas where it is being released. Will just have to stick to the (comparatively) cheap regular bottle!

$150 in Louisville. I think perhaps a little too expensive for me, especially as I am not a big AE fan anyway.
That is an absolute joke of a price.
Friends,
As noted in this thread, we have just released the Cask Strength version of Angel's Envy.
By way of details, the release proofed at 123.7, is completely unfiltered, and we are only releasing 600 bottles worldwide. Each bottle is individually numbered, and presented in a hand crafted wood box. The package also contains an invitation to a private event in January hosted by my family, featuring Lincoln, of course. This event will not only be a celebration of food and drink, it will also be an exclusive opportunity to sample works in progress, and help guide taste profiles for future releases. While I don't set retail pricing, I am seeing a list price of $149.00.
As for my friend MyOldKYDram----please email me your contact information (whenderson@louisvilledistilling.com). I will let the bourbon speak for itself, and send you a sample for evaluation. If it is NOT the most complex and smooth cask strength bourbon you have ever tried, I will purchase a bottle at retail and send it to you----all on me. Your word is final, and I will not argue your observations. Fair enough?
I have uploaded a photo, which in preview, appears to be sideways....my apologies if this is the case.
Cheers,

Sounds like a challenge.
Dang!! I wish I had bitched about the price...;)
Challenge accepted. :P
I've little to no doubt it's a quality product. I enjoy the regular bottling quite a bit. I'm simply having a tremendously difficult time justifying the price. But I will indeed let the juice speak for itself per your suggestion, Wes. Well played.
That'll learn ya.
