Origins & Craftsmanship

Crafted by Penelope Bourbon, this expression begins with bourbon sourced and matured, then finished in a specially “toasted” barrel: one that has been heavily toasted to impart distinctive vanilla, caramel and marshmallow notes. The mash bill is approximately 75% corn • 21% rye • 4% malted barley. The finish in the hand-toasted barrels calls out the “Marshmallow Toast” name explicitly. Bottled at barrel strength (~110 proof) and non-chill-filtered, the release sits within Penelope’s “Toasted” series of limited runs.

Tasting Profile

• Nose: Rich brown-sugar sweetness, caramel syrup, glimmers of marshmallow fluff and toasted vanilla bean—a warm, inviting aroma.

• Palate: Creamy caramel and vanilla lead into toasted marshmallow, butterscotch and a hint of charred oak spice. Underlying grain and rye-drive give a firm structure despite the sweet dessert-notes.

• Finish: Long and warming; fire-kissed marshmallow lingers, vanillas and a subtle spice/pepper edge round out the fade rather than letting it collapse into simple sweetness.
