Penelope Bourbon Introduces Rosé Cask Finish: A Game-Changer for Summer

As the summer season approaches, bourbon enthusiasts are on the lookout for a refreshing and unique whiskey experience. Penelope Bourbon, a renowned whiskey brand, has answered the call with its latest release: Rosé Cask Finish (Batch 8). This innovative bourbon is finished in hand-selected Grenache rosé wine casks from the Southern Rhône region, resulting in a truly distinctive flavor profile.

“Rosé Cask Finish was our first-ever release in our Cooper Series and has always been well received by consumers,” said Michael Paladini, founder of Penelope Bourbon. “Batch 8 offers a wonderful combination of sweet and delicate flavor, perfect for the summer, at a new shelf price of $49.99. This highly anticipated release offers something truly special for bourbon and wine enthusiasts alike.”

The bourbon features an aroma of candied fruit and cream with floral and herbal notes; forward notes of refreshing and sweet hints of vanilla; a body that transitions from sweetness to herbal, floral, and strawberry cream; and a rich, vanilla finish with hints of strawberry and lingering notes. Rosé Cask Finish is bottled at 94 proof with a mash bill of 74% corn, 16% wheat, 7% rye, and 3% malted barley.
