Proof: 109.9 proof
Barrel No: 160224104
Mash bill: Sweet Mash; At least 51% Corn, Rye and Malted Barley
Tasting Notes: Classically Kentucky bourbon with a twist. Creamy and slightly funky fruit pie, heavy simple syrup, toffee, hot chocolate and soft oak. Rich and mature. If you had this in a blind you could mistake this for a heritage product.
The palate is voluptuous - a perfect balance of brown sugar, caramel, slightly smoked cherry, raspberry, cream soda and lasting oak. With all the different profiles I’ve had from Peerless in their bourbon, this one is one of the most complete, focused, and enjoyable I’ve found.
The finish gives a nice Kentucky hug complimented by long lasting dried fruits, vanilla cream soda, toffee, and lingering sweet oak.
About: Non-chill Filtered; Sweet Mash Fermentation
Peerless Kentucky Straight Bourbon upholds the promise of producing top-notch spirits from the historic distillery. Unlike rye, which features more hay and pepper, Peerless Bourbon is rooted in fruits, florals, and oaks. The nose features citrus, cedar, and honeysuckle as well as a nice balance of spicy oak. The first sip is that of caramel and toasted oak before a multitude of notes from around the flavor wheel show up on the palate. The finish showcases an enduring duel between sweet and spicy notes as citrus, florals, and sweet oak tussle with dry cocoa, cinnamon, and spicy oak. The result is an amazing whiskey - fascinating for everyone from beginners to connoisseurs.
Every drop of Peerless Whiskey is honestly crafted, never sourced. Never chill-filtered.
Strictly sweet mash. Barrel proof. No water added. Made in the USA.
