The Penelope Tokaji Cask Finish is an elegant 9-year-old straight rye whiskey that takes your palate on a world tour. Part of the Cooper Series, this limited-edition expression is finished in rare Tokaji wine casks from Hungary — known for producing “the wine of kings.”
Aged for nearly a decade, this rye is both rich and decadent, capturing the honeyed, late-harvest notes of the Tokaji dessert wine and marrying them seamlessly with the spice and boldness of rye whiskey. Bottled at 104 proof (52% ABV) and non-chill filtered, every sip delivers depth, texture, and a luxurious finish.
This expression exemplifies Penelope’s innovative barrel-finishing approach and is perfect for rye lovers seeking something truly unique.
