I’ve been waiting to open this bottle for a special moment and when I got married I knew it was the right time.
Huge nose right off the bat. Aroma for days and it smells thick and viscous, old and wow mouthwatering. It’s hard for me to express tasting notes to be honest. This bottle means a lot more to me than just the bourbon inside. It’s a pour that I’m going to have on my wedding anniversary and I’ll take that time to just sit and enjoy and not be too analytical. A special bottle.

Simple pours this evening. This Small Batch from Horse Soldier is a cinnamon candy bomb. Light and fresh, not too clingy on the palate, just leaves me wanting more! Cheers y’all!

THIS IS MY OPINION!
@penelopebourbon Chapter One Cigar Session American Whiskey – A Personal Miss, But an Appreciated Release.
I recently purchased the Penelope Chapter One Cigar Session American Whiskey, and while I truly appreciate the creativity behind this release, it just wasn’t a match for my palate at this time.
This expression brings a bold and unique profile to the table. The richness and intensity are undeniable—there’s a deep, smokiness with a heavy, almost leathery finish that seems a purpose for cigar pairings. I can absolutely see how this would excite to certain whiskey drinker.
That said, for me personally, the flavor profile leaned a bit too far in that direction. I found it a little overwhelming and not quite balanced to my taste. The sweetness I look for in a pour was more muted, and the notes just didn’t quite come alive for me.
Still, I appreciate @penelopebourbon for pushing the boundaries and offering something different. It’s always exciting to see brands take risks and try something new, even if it doesn’t hit home for every palate. I know there’s an audience out there that will love this bottle—it just wasn’t mine.
Would love to hear your thoughts on this one. Hope everyone has a great weekend!
Cheers 🥃👊
