Penelope Private Select Barrel Strength Bourbon

Rich vanilla and caramel on the nose. Very sweet and no hint of ethanol. Faint hints of charred,smoky wood. Taste is smooth and spicy, the vanilla flavors come through with the smoky. Little bit of cinnamon at the end. Flavors linger in a great way. Spicier than j usually like but this is a great drink. Definitely recommend.

Batch 11, 116 proof. Aroma is floral, vanilla. Room temp neat, for 116 proof surprisingly mellow. Notes of oak, vanilla, caramel, pepper. Light burn on lips and tongue. With a bourbon cube chilling it, changed it quite a bit. Comes across almost scotch like with a smoky taste.

Rich and smooth. What I expect from full strength barrel pick.
