Founders Reserve
Penelope Founders Reserve showcases rare and unique barrels we were fortunate to find. This limited release features 24 barrels of experimental Straight Wheat Whiskey, crafted in April 2013 at the historic Ross & Squibb Distillery in Lawrenceburg, IN.
Aged in charred new American oak, these beautiful, one-of-a-kind spirits were batched in five lots, and bottled at cask strength, each with their own character.
