Digging into the numbers behind Penelope’s bourbon, I found that they are using a “Four Grain” bourbon for the base of their blends.

I feel like it’s unfair to start close to the top, but if this is how the remaining labels present themselves, then I’m going to have fun exploring each one. I’d be interested to see how the other Architects (this is a Batch 6) are different from each other. Surely there is a goal ofimp...
