Penelope Bourbon Architect

Precision-Crafted with French Oak Staves

Architecture is defined as the art or practice of designing and constructing buildings. Using those same principles, Penelope Architect builds new and distinct flavor profiles the same way an architect creates innovative structures. Working in collaboration with Tonnellerie Radoux of France, the market leader in oak barrel manufacturing and innovation, Penelope uses French oak staves and 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.

The Architect Process

This innovative bourbon utilizes French oak staves inserted into traditional American oak barrels, creating a unique dual-oak influence. The OakScan® technology ensures precise control over toast levels and flavor extraction, allowing the master blender to architect exact flavor profiles with scientific precision.
