Penelope Cooper Series: Havana Maple Syrup & Rum Barrel Double Cask Finished, 46.5%
Price: ● Issue: Summer 2025 ● Reviewer: Shane English ● Category: Bourbon/Tennessee Whiskey
This wheated MGP bourbon is finished in rum casks for 1 year then maple syrup barrels for 1 month. The result is a decadently sweet whiskey, blooming from the glass with aromas of bananas Foster, maple syrup, vanilla ice cream, and an undertone of rum funk. The palate and finish offer more of the same big, bold sweet notes but with the faintest hint of oak. (Release date: 12/24)
