Penelope Rio Double Cask Finish Bourbon Whiskey 750ml
Penelope Cooper Series takes their straight whiskeys on a world tour, pairing Penelope with wine casks from the finest wine making regions. This edition heads south, inspired by the joy of Brazil.
Rio delights the senses with a double cask finish of American honey and Brazilian Amburana oak. The two make perfect dance partners, rich and sweet, with surprising depth. Yeah, it's a carnival in a bottle but don't let that fool you. This is a serious whiskey.
Sweet honey on the nose with a fun Cinnamon roll note. Gingerbread, honey nectar & sweet baking spice follow on the palate with a sweet red rye spice. A long and surprisingly savoury finish.
"Rio dances from the glass with cinnamon sugar, honey-sweetened granola, and flamed orange. The sip is elegant, leading with a sweet-hot punch of cinnamon candies, chocolate orange, and dried chiles. Honey buns, vanilla pound cake, and chocolate frosting carry into the finish, which dials down the sweetness as toasted oak, over-steeped black tea, and dark chocolate linger on the back palate." - Shane English, Whisky Advocate
