Penelope Architect Straight Bourbon Whiskey Finished In French Oak Staves

Architecture is defined as the the art or practice of designing and constructing buildings. Using those same principles, we wanted to build new and distinct flavor profiles that same way an Architect creates new innovative structures.

Working in collaboration with Tonnellerie Radoux of France, the market leader in oak barrel manufacturing and innovation, we use French oak staves and their their state-of-the-art OakScan® process to build a truly precise flavor profile within every bottle. After all, the best architecture leaves no room for error.

About Penelope
Created in the spirit of celebration for the arrival of his first baby girl Penelope, Mike Paladini launched Penelope Bourbon - a carefully crafted classic American bourbon featuring soulful finishing and quality craftsmanship. With the help of his wife and his childhood friend Danny Polise, Paladini developed the brand with the aim to produce straight bourbon whiskey that anyone could truly appreciate, collect, and savor. To date, Penelope Bourbon is sold throughout the world in over 4 countries and offered in 27 states in the US. Using expertly sourced ingredients and distillates from world-renowned MGP Distillery and partnering with some of the most well-known names in the industry - including Bardstown Bourbon Co. - Penelope Bourbon is quickly becoming a recognized leader in authentically quaffable and wholly collectible bourbon whiskey.

"Technically, Penelope Bourbon is produced in Bardstown, Kentucky, but the brand is headquartered in Roselle, New Jersey, one of the only widely available bourbons to call the Garden State its home. The brand's small-batch bourbon is part of its Four Grain series, the name meaning each bottle contains a blend of three different mash bills each consisting of corn, wheat, rye, and malted barley. These three whiskeys come together to create a trinity of taste and texture, evoking the classic notes you love in a quality bourbon. This small batch is so classic-tasting, Penelope even recommends it be used in your favorite bourbon cocktails." - Via TastingTable.com
