Description
A Rare Expression of American Craft
Penelope Bourbon has built its reputation on approachable, well-crafted American whiskeys — and the 18 Year American Light Whiskey is a standout achievement. Distilled and aged for nearly two decades, this expression showcases the patience and precision that defines Penelope’s philosophy. American Light Whiskey, a lesser-known but historically significant category, is distilled at a higher proof and aged in used or uncharred oak, resulting in a lighter, more delicate spirit that lets the grain and time do the talking.
Tasting Notes
- Nose: Soft vanilla cream, dried apricot, toasted oak, and a whisper of honeysuckle with subtle grain sweetness
- Palate: Light and silky with notes of caramel wafer, white peach, gentle spice, and a touch of butterscotch
- Finish: Clean and lingering with warm oak, a hint of dried fruit, and a smooth, refined fade
