Mike Paladini and his wife Kerry had long agreed that if they had a daughter she would be named Penelope. In 2018 they had that daughter, named her as intended, and founded Penelope Bourbon at the same time with Mike’s childhood friend Danny Polise. As many start-up Spirits companies do, they have launched with a little outside help. In this case distilling and aging in Indiana at MGP and expert blending and bottling assistance from Castle Rock in Kentucky — whom they proudly call part of their team. And the team is working, with two successful releases under their belt and a fistful of awards already in hand.
Penelope Bourbon is a blend of three Spirits — two rye-based and one wheat-based with the same aging profile. Two of them are aged two years (one is aged three) in barrels that have a #4 char on the staves and the heads have a #2 char. And as it should be, the Bourbon is non-chill-filtered to preserve the most flavor and character. And although they have a higher-proof version, this one is for sipping neat as is at 40% ABV.

Ratings & Reviews
Michael,
Nice bourbon, a little light. Would be good with a BBQ. Also would make a good summer evening sipper.
Tom,
Good bourbon. But nothing spectacular or noteworthy. I’d drink it again but probably wouldn’t buy it again.
Craig,
Enjoyable neat, definitely would pair well with smoked meat or BBQ
Mike,
This was a very sweet bourbon for me, much more than I was expecting, the bottle did not last long.
Jake,
For a young bourbon this has a nice palate to enjoy neat.
