Penelope American Light 128.4 Proof 15 year 750 ml
About this bottle
Penelope American Light 15 Year is a limited-release American Light Whiskey from Penelope, the Kentucky-based whiskey brand better known for its blended bourbons. American Light Whiskey is a distinct, less common federal whiskey category, distilled at a higher proof and aged in used or uncharred barrels, which gives a lighter wood influence than bourbon typically carries even after fifteen years in barrel. Bottled at a hefty 128.4 proof, expect a nose of light caramel and grain, a palate that's smoother and less oak-forward than a bourbon of the same age, and a warm, high-proof finish. It's a pour for whiskey drinkers curious about a category most bourbon fans have never actually tried.
How to drink Penelope American Light 15 Year
Neat or with a few drops of water, in small pours, 128.4 proof runs hot, and cutting it with a splash of water opens up the grain and caramel notes without losing what fifteen years did to it.
