Two Bold American Whiskeys, One Collector Bundle — 2 x 750mL
Some pairings are happy accidents. This one was intentional from the start. This bundle brings together two distinct expressions from Penelope Bourbon: the high-proof Cigar Sessions: Chapter 2 American Whiskey, built specifically for the ritual of the smoke, and the smooth, approachable Penelope Wheated Bourbon — giving you both ends of Penelope's flavor spectrum in one bundle.
Penelope Cigar Sessions: Chapter 2
Penelope Whiskey partnered with the master cigar blenders behind some of the most celebrated sticks in the premium cigar world to craft something neither could create alone — a whiskey purpose-built for the ritual of the smoke. Chapter 2 is the result of two obsessive crafts meeting in the middle, with every decision made around a single question: does it make the session better? The answer is in the glass.
Built to stand up to the depth and complexity of medium to full-bodied cigars, Chapter 2 is a high-proof American Whiskey with the character to match. Bottled at a bold 117.4 proof, it brings the weight and warmth a serious smoke demands — toasted oak, dark caramel, and seasoned spice that linger long after the last draw. Meticulously blended on a 3-grain mash bill and distilled in Lawrenceburg, Indiana, this expression is designed to pair effortlessly with a serious cigar.
Chapter 2 Tasting Notes
Aroma: Toasted oak, dark caramel, leather, and baking spice.
Body: Charred brown sugar, sweet corn, cocoa, and creamy malt.
Finish: Dark chocolate, seasoned oak, warm spice, and lingering sweetness.
Penelope Wheated Bourbon
Penelope Wheated Bourbon combines the sweetness of wheat with the nuanced complexity of a four-grain mash bill, striking a balance between boldness and drinkability. Bottled at 95 proof and non-chill filtered to preserve its full, natural character, it's an easy-sipping counterpart to Chapter 2's bold intensity — equally at home neat, on the rocks, or in a bourbon-forward cocktail.
Wheated Bourbon Tasting Notes
Aroma: Light oak, sweet corn, apple, and pear.
Body: Vanilla, honey, caramel apple, and a touch of orange zest.
Finish: Lingering brown sugar, toasted oak, and a touch of cinnamon spice.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's included in this bundle?
This bundle includes one 750mL bottle of Penelope Cigar Sessions: Chapter 2 American Whiskey and one 750mL bottle of Penelope Wheated Bourbon.
What makes Cigar Sessions: Chapter 2 different from a typical whiskey?
Chapter 2 was developed in partnership with master cigar blenders, with every decision guided by how it would perform alongside a cigar. Bottled at a bold 117.4 proof, it's built to stand up to medium-to-full-bodied cigars without losing its own character.
Is Cigar Sessions: Chapter 2 a limited release?
Yes. Only 9,962 six-bottle cases were produced, distributed to select markets. Once this batch sells out, it will not be reproduced in this exact form.
What's the difference between the two bottles in this bundle?
Chapter 2 is a high-proof (117.4 proof), 3-grain American Whiskey built for bold sipping alongside a cigar. Wheated Bourbon is a smoother, more approachable 95-proof, four-grain straight bourbon with softer wheat-forward sweetness — ideal for everyday sipping, on the rocks, or in cocktails.
Do I need to be a cigar smoker to enjoy Chapter 2?
Not at all. While Chapter 2 was designed with cigar pairing in mind, its bold, high-proof profile of toasted oak, dark caramel, and dark chocolate makes it an excellent standalone sipping whiskey on its own.
Is Penelope Wheated Bourbon non-chill filtered?
Yes. It's bottled without chill filtration to retain its full, natural flavor profile.
Where are these whiskeys made?
Both expressions are distilled in Lawrenceburg, Indiana, and blended by the Penelope Bourbon team.
