Penelope Bourbon Unveils Architects of Golf
Penelope Bourbon has announced the launch of Architects of Golf, a new limited-edition collection that celebrates the brand’s origins.
In 2018, two friends – Michael Paladini and Danny Polise – had an exchange of ideas over 18 holes of golf. Those ideas would ultimately evolve into Penelope Bourbon. Architects of Golf honors that origin story.
Reflecting the progression of a round of golf itself, the Architects of Golf collection launches with three distinct expressions — Hole 1, Hole 2, and Hole 3 — each building on the last through distinct stave finishing techniques implemented at different intensities and over different lengths of time, and each bottled at 94 proof (47% ABV).
- Architects of Golf Hole 1 opens with aromas of caramel and butterscotch layered with baking spices and nutmeg. On the palate, dark chocolate, sweet oak, and roasted nuts lead into a finish of lingering sweet oak, vanilla, subtle leather, and spice, delivering a smooth, balanced introduction to the series.
- Architects of Golf Hole 2 delivers a more structured profile, opening with aromas of butterscotch, baking spices, and sweet fruit. On the palate, dark chocolate, butterscotch, vanilla, and French toast build layered richness, leading into a finish of lingering sweet oak, vanilla, subtle leather, and spice for a deeper, more robust expression.
- Architects of Golf Hole 3 showcases the most robust stave influence of the three, with prominent vanilla layered over rich toast and baking spice. Aromas of caramel and dried red fruit lead into a fuller palate of chocolate mousse, vanilla, and lingering oak, finishing with toasted oak, cherry, and dark chocolate for a layered, concentrated profile.
The first three bottles in the Architects of Golf collection will be available at select retailers nationwide beginning later this month for a suggested retail price of $59.99 per bottle.
