Penelope Wheated Straight Bourbon 95 Proof

Penelope Four Grain Wheated Bourbon is a uniquely crafted four-grain straight bourbon whiskey that balances soft wheated sweetness with a delicate accent of rye spice. Distilled from three distinct bourbon mash bills containing corn, wheat, rye, and malted barley, this non-chill filtered expression is aged between 4 to 6 years in new charred American oak barrels before being proofed to 95 proof (47.5% ABV). The elevated proof delivers a smooth, rich, and well-structured tasting experience that highlights rich vanilla, orchard fruits, and gentle oak spice.

Food Pairing: Smoked pork ribs with brown sugar glaze, pecan pie, aged cheddar cheese, or apple tarte Tatin.

Tasting Notes : Light golden amber in appearance with a smooth, approachable, and medium-bodied mouthfeel on the palate.

Nose : Light oak and sweet corn transitioning into aromas of baked vanilla, honeyed pear, fresh red apple peel, and subtle brown sugar.

Palate : Soft and round with sweet vanilla, honey, caramel apple, citrus zest, and a building mid-palate accent of gentle white pepper and rye spice.

Finish : Medium-long and warming with persistent brown sugar, toasted oak, and lingering cinnamon spice.

Serve : Serve neat, on the rocks with a single large ice cube, or as an elevated base for classic whiskey cocktails like an Old Fashioned or Paper Plane.
