Penelope Architect Finished With French Oak Staves Private Select ‘The Bay Brew’

Penelope ‘The Bay Brew’ Architect Private Select: The “Creme Brulee” of the Bay!

Nestor Liquor is exceptionally proud to present our latest hand-selected single barrel: Penelope Architect ‘The Bay Brew’ Private Select. If you have been searching for the legendary, dessert-like “Penelope Creme Brulee” profile, your search is over. We hand-picked this specific barrel for its incredibly rich, creamy, and decadent character.

This exceptional bourbon starts as Penelope’s signature four-grain straight bourbon. It’s then finished using the “Architect” process, with a custom-selected blend of French Oak Staves. This secondary maturation with the elegant, spicy French oak imparts a silky-smooth texture and deep, sweet baking spices, transforming the bourbon into a true liquid dessert.

The similar mashbill and finishing process to the famed “Creme Brulee” batches are on full display here. Bottled at a perfect 110 proof (55% ABV), ‘The Bay Brew’ is full-bodied and rich, yet remarkably smooth. The higher proof amplifies the deep, sweet flavors, making it a sophisticated and decadent sipper.

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: A rich and decadent bouquet of vanilla bean, heavily caramelized brown sugar, and a hint of toasted French oak.

• Palate: A luxuriously creamy and velvety mouthfeel. Waves of sweet crme brle, vanilla custard, and rich toffee are perfectly balanced by a sophisticated, gentle spice from the French oak.

• Finish: An exceptionally long and sweet finish, with lingering notes of burnt sugar, sweet cream, and a touch of cinnamon.

As your preferred partner for exclusive picks, Nestor Liquor is the only place to find ‘The Bay Brew’ single barrel. This is a must-have for any fan of the Architect or “Creme Brulee” profiles. Add this bottle of liquid dessert to your collection!
