A specialized toast enhances integration, delivering a bold, timeless experience.”
After 11 years of aging, Omega was finished in specially selected French Oak barrels. The rare, tight-grain staves and custom toast bring out layers of vanilla, dark fruit, cocoa, and sweet spice, creating a bourbon that feels both bold and refined within the Estate Collection.
From Penelope’s distillery notes:
Aroma: Warm vanilla, honey, toffee, allspice
Palate: Brown sugar, dark fruit, leather, cocoa
