The third and most impressive installment in Penelope's American Light Founders Reserve series elevates this mysterious whiskey category to new heights with an exceptional 17-year age statement.

A Rare American Light Whiskey Masterpiece
Distilled in 2008 at MGP from a 99% corn, 1% malted barley mashbill, this expression underwent the distinctive light whiskey process—distilled between 160-190 proof to remove heavier congeners. Aged 17 years in second-fill oak barrels and bottled at 138.8 proof, this January 2025 release represents Penelope's dominance in American light whiskey. With only 5,000 cases available in select markets, this release remarkably reduces the price by $30 from previous editions while delivering the most complex expression yet.

Sweet Complexity Meets Savory Depth
The nose presents caramel kettle corn, strawberry, and vanilla wafer alongside cake batter and toasted oak. The palate delivers honeycomb, browned butter, crème brûlée, and cinnamon frosting that showcases higher proof without excessive heat.
