Penelope Bourbon Toasted Series explores new and unique expressions of our signature four grain straight bourbon whiskey. After full maturation in charred new American oak barrels, we finish Penelope Bourbon™ Small Batch Barrel Strength in a new, freshly toasted barrel. Each barrel is unique and different - making each bottle distinct with its own flavor profile. The barrels selected for this series are the best our inventory has to offer and go through an extensive hand-selection process.

NOSE Bold smoked cherry | Toasted oak | Hints of jam | Light caramel | Slight ethanol

PALATE Sharp rye spice | Cherry | Charred oak | Shows its proof

FINISH Big rye spice | Peppercorn | Oak | Light vanilla | Leather | Lingering mouth enveloping heat
