The result is a boozy, sweet, complex take on the iconic Old Fashioned cocktail. According to Penelope Bourbon, it begins with a nose of dark cherry, vanilla, stone fruit, and orange peels. Sipping it reveals notes of vanilla, allspice, peach, and fig. The finish is a lingering, warm mix of caramel and candied ginger.

“Peach Old Fashioned is our first leap into the ready-to-pour category and we think folks will really enjoy it,” Michael Paladini, Penelope Bourbon founder and vice president of strategy for MGP Ingredients said.

“We handpicked the bourbon and rye we used, along with the premium ingredients, to craft a modern take on an iconic classic. We think this will be a go-to for anyone looking for a delicious old fashioned at a great price.”

Why “smooth” is the most debated word in bourbon — and what it really means

That doesn’t stop people from using it, though.

In almost two decades of writing about alcohol (with a strong emphasis on whiskey), I’ve written countless tasting notes. While I try to avoid using the word, I can understand its appeal. We all have a notion of what it means when we see it. This brings us to one crucial question, though. While it’s a seemingly generic term, what exactly does “smooth” mean when it comes to bourbon?
