Process & Profile

Penelope Crème Brûlée French Oak Stave Finish 2026 Release 750mL is a limited edition straight bourbon whiskey from Penelope’s Architect series, finished with French oak staves to create a rich, dessert-inspired profile. Designed to highlight the warm sweetness of crème brûlée, this release brings together Penelope’s bourbon base with the added influence of toasted French oak for deeper vanilla, caramelized sugar, baking spice, and creamy oak character.

Bottled at 110 proof, Penelope Crème Brûlée delivers a bolder sipping experience while keeping the rounded, polished style that makes the Architect series so popular. The French oak stave finish adds layers of toasted vanilla bean, sweet cream, brown sugar, cinnamon, and savory oak, creating a profile that feels rich without losing balance.

This 2026 release is a strong choice for Penelope collectors, fans of French oak-finished bourbon, and whiskey drinkers who enjoy a sweeter, dessert-style bourbon with enough proof and structure to sip neat or use in an elevated cocktail.
