Expect flavors of chocolate-covered marshmallow, cinnamon, caramel, and sweet char. It's the OG of toasted finishes for many bourbon fans. 🥃 *Penelope Toasted Bourbon* Sourced from MGP and finished by Penelope in toasted barrels with varying char levels, this 4-grain bourbon is soft, complex, and dangerously smooth.
