A Louisville-based craft distiller since 2016, Angel’s Envy recently unveiled the details of its upcoming $8.2M expansion.

The project will add more than 13,000 square feet, including a new event space and bar, a larger retail space and several new tasting rooms. It will increase annual guest capacity by 64,000.

Construction began in late 2020 and is expected to be completed in Spring 2022.

Specific additions to the distillery experience include additional bar space, five new bourbon tasting rooms for guests, event space and full catering kitchen, allowing the distillery to be used for pairing dinners and private gatherings such as conferences and corporate events as well as a designated room for the Angel’s Envy “Bottle Your Own” experience.
