Penelope rio bourbon

Rio is our latest instalment in our Cooper Series which takes our straight whiskeys on a world tour, pairing Penelope with unique casks from around the world. Inspired by the joy of Brazil, Rio delights the senses with a double cask finish of American honey and Brazilian oak. The two make perfect dance partners, rich and sweet, with surprising depth. It's a carnival in a bottle.

"...with aromas of honeysuckle, raisin, coffee cake, and ripe banana. The palate is cinnamon-dominated and spicy, with rum raisin ice cream and Big Red gum. Mid to short length on the finish but full of flavour. Playful, simple, and delicious." - Whisky Advocate
