Penelope Magic Toast Barrel Strength Toasted Bourbon

Straight Bourbon Whiskey | 55% ABV | 110 Proof | 750mL | 5 Year Age Statement | Char 5 Heavy Toast

Process & Profile

Penelope Magic Toast Barrel Strength Toasted Bourbon is a bold 2026 release that builds on Penelope’s signature toasted-barrel style with higher proof and an especially rich oak profile. The bourbon is matured in new charred American oak before receiving additional finishing in a new toasted barrel featuring a Char 5 and Heavy Toast treatment.

Bottled at 110 proof, Magic Toast delivers concentrated bourbon character while allowing the secondary oak finishing to bring forward deeper caramelized flavors. Penelope’s Toasted Series uses a mash bill of 75% corn, 21% rye, and 4% malted barley, creating a balance of sweetness, baking spice, and structure that pairs naturally with the heavy-toast finish.

What Makes It Special

Penelope Magic Toast stands apart by combining a 5-year-old bourbon, 110-proof barrel-strength presentation, and an assertive Char 5 Heavy Toast secondary barrel treatment. The heavier toast amplifies the darker dessert-driven side of the whiskey, adding layers of chocolate, caramelized sugar, vanilla, and roasted marshmallow while maintaining the rye spice found in Penelope’s bourbon mash bill.

Released in 2026, Magic Toast offers a distinctive variation of Penelope’s popular Toasted Series for bourbon drinkers looking for more intensity, richer oak influence, and a higher-proof sipping experience.
