Penelope Bourbon Architect is a meticulously crafted bourbon that combines the elegance of tradition with innovative craftsmanship. This whiskey is part of Penelope's Architect series, known for its unique influence of French oak staves, which impart a distinctive depth and complexity. The blend brings together four distinct bourbon mash bills that are aged and finished in barrels containing these staves, resulting in a flavor profile that is both rich and layered.
Crafted with precision, Penelope Architect showcases the collaborative spirit of its founders, drawing inspiration from the architecture of flavor itself. The combination of American oak with the influence of French oak creates a truly harmonious bourbon that is as refined as it is approachable.

Why Liquor Geeks recommends it
This is a bourbon built around a single idea: what happens when French oak staves join the American oak conversation. Penelope blends four distinct bourbon mash bills, then ages and finishes them in barrels containing French oak staves, and the result reads as layered rather than loud. Expect honey and vanilla up front on the nose, with toasted oak, caramel and a quiet thread of baking spice. On the palate, caramel and toffee give way to warm oak and a touch of dark chocolate. The finish is smooth and gentle, with vanilla and oak hanging on. It is approachable enough for someone still finding their way into bourbon, yet the four-grain, corn-dominant build and French oak influence give a seasoned drinker plenty to pick apart in a glass neat. We carry it because it is a genuinely versatile pour: thoughtful sipped on its own, sturdy in an Old Fashioned or Bourbon Sour, and at home next to barbecue or a creamy dessert.
Pairs well with
- Grilled meats and barbecue — The caramel sweetness and toasted oak in this bourbon play nicely against smoky, charred flavors from the grill.
- Creamy desserts — Vanilla, toffee and a touch of dark chocolate on the palate echo and lift rich, creamy sweets.
- Old Fashioned cocktail night — The honey and baking spice notes stand up well to Angostura bitters and a bright orange peel garnish.

Is it better neat or in cocktails?
Both work. Its balanced, approachable character makes it a rewarding neat pour for newcomers and experienced bourbon drinkers alike. It also builds a classic Old Fashioned with sugar, Angostura bitters and orange peel, or a Bourbon Sour with fresh lemon juice and simple syrup.
