Penelope Bourbon Rose Cask Finish is a testament to the spirit of collaboration and passion for bourbon that defines Penelope Bourbon. This unique expression is the result of careful craftsmanship and the desire to create a bourbon that stands out. Penelope Bourbon's journey began when founders Mike Paladini and Danny Polise, childhood friends from Basking Ridge, NJ, decided to embark on a bourbon-making adventure. The birth of Mike's daughter, Penelope, inspired them to bring together their love for their soon-to-be baby girl and the world of straight bourbon whiskey, giving rise to Penelope Bourbon.

Why Liquor Geeks recommends it

This is a bourbon built on a corn-dominant mash bill from Indiana, then given a wine cask finish that pushes it toward red fruit and flowers without losing its backbone. The nose opens on floral notes and fresh red berries over soft vanilla and oak. The palate brings ripe strawberry and raspberry, warm honey and a touch of oak, and the finish lingers on rose petals and a faint echo of red fruit sweetness. It suits drinkers who like their bourbon on the sweeter, fruit-forward side. It is also an easy introduction to finished bourbons for anyone curious about how a wine cask reshapes the category, and it makes a lovely Manhattan. We carry it because the story is as personal as the liquid. Founders Mike Paladini and Danny Polise, childhood friends from Basking Ridge, New Jersey, were inspired by the birth of Mike's daughter, Penelope. A bottle that celebrates friendship and fatherhood, and tastes like it was made with care, earns its place on our shelf.
