Penelope Wheated Four Grain Straight Bourbon Whiskey (750ml)
This NAS bottling is reportedly a 4-6 year old whiskey made using sourced liquid from MGP in Indiana. The four grain mashbill delivers a soft and sweet sip contrasted with a touch of pleasing spice. 47.5% Alc./Vol. Non chill filtered.
Other reviews... Made from a mashbill of 74% corn, 16% wheat, 7% rye, and 3% malted barley, the nose on this one is alluringly sweet, with powdered sugar, candy corn, toasted marshmallow, and Golden Grahams floating from the glass. This has great body; the palate retains that sugary sweetness, then boosts it with vanilla pastry cream, mocha latte, and more sweet grain notes. The finish keeps a good thing going with vanilla, delicate malt, and baking spice at the fore. (Release date: 1/25) 90 points - whiskyadvocate.com
