Penelope Rye Toasted Barrel Whiskey is a special annual release and the second installment in Penelope Bourbon's Straight Rye Whiskey Toasted series, once again proving that great whiskey often comes from a bit of serendipity. After completing full maturation in traditional charred oak, this rye undergoes an additional toasting process that adds a new layer of caramelized depth to its naturally spicy character. Expect a nose of toasted vanilla, warm baking spice, and rich caramel, while the palate combines classic peppery rye grain with brown sugar sweetness and toasted oak, finishing long and smooth with a lingering, dessert-like warmth balancing the rye's natural bite.
This rye's toasted sweetness makes it a great choice for sipping neat or with a single large cube, and it also makes a rounder, more approachable rye Old Fashioned. Pair it with caramel desserts, roasted nuts, or aged cheddar to complement its toasted character.
As the second release in Penelope's celebrated Toasted series, this rye continues the brand's reputation for creative, well-executed barrel finishing. Order Penelope Rye Toasted Barrel Whiskey online at Habits Bottle Shop and try this annual limited release.
