Penelope Rio Bourbon 2025 — Honey Barrel Finish
Penelope Bourbon is a Louisville-based brand known for its approachable, four-grain mash bill and creative barrel finishing program. The Rio 2025 expression takes Penelope's signature straight bourbon and finishes it in barrels that previously held honey — a technique that imparts a natural, delicate sweetness and floral character without artificial flavoring, allowing the honey's influence to weave seamlessly into the bourbon's existing oak and grain profile.
The 2025 vintage marks another chapter in Penelope's exploration of innovative finishing, delivering a bourbon that is both distinctive and highly approachable — a perfect introduction to finished whiskey for newcomers and a rewarding pour for seasoned enthusiasts.
Palate: Smooth and inviting — natural honey sweetness, butterscotch, graham cracker, light baking spice, and a soft grain character from the four-grain mash bill
Finish: Long and sweet with lingering honey, vanilla, and subtle floral warmth
