"Penelope's use of VDN here balances wonderfully with their choice of a 4 grain mashbill for a pour that's rich and sweet, but not too sweet, with a great balance of grain and fruit" - Bottle Raiders (88 Points)
"A unique barrel finish bourbon that comes out swinging with orange as its main flavor component" - Eric Hasman, Breaking Bourbon
"Overall, this was an excellent bourbon that has become a contender for my weekly sipper; yet I do not want to finish it yet. Drinking this blindly, you would think this is a rye whiskey because of the amazing baking spice finish. If you have not tried this, like finished bourbon whiskey, and have the chance, this is a must-try from Penelope. With that said, let’s get our taste on!" - Bourbon Bossman
"In conclusion, Penelope Valencia Vino de Naranja Finished Bourbon offers a delightful and refreshing whiskey experience that stands out from the crowd. The nose is sweet and inviting, with bright citrus notes balanced by hints of vanilla, caramel, and warming spices. On the palate, it unfolds with layers of nutmeg, fresh orange, and apricot, adding complexity without being overly rich or heavy. The medium-length finish carries a touch of sweetness, with flavors of baking spices, graham cracker, and a subtle leather note. With a dry, expressive profile and an intriguing, juicy finish, this bourbon is both approachable and distinctive—an enjoyable pour that showcases Penelope’s flair for creative cask finishes." - Matthew Evans, Whiskey Consensus (90 Points)
"No matter how many times I tried Valencia, that mouthfeel was damned unusual, and my tongue could never purchase traction. I liked the tangelo and ginger combination; I appreciate that citrus wasn’t all in my face. The spices were complimentary to the sweeter notes. There isn’t anything to complain about, and if you desire something beyond the same-old, same-old Bourbon, Valencia is worth picking up a bottle." - Whiskey Fellow
