Kentucky Peerless Single Barrel Bourbon — Vintage Manhattan
~110 proof
NAS
Bourbon
Kentucky Peerless Distilling Company
Louisville, KY
Nose
Sweet, aromatic, and floral with a wine-like character reminiscent of dark, sweet, musty wine; hints of Luxardo cherry syrup and dark stone fruit.
Palate
Sweet throughout with viscous mouthfeel; generous coating on the tongue; dark fruit character (plum and raisin notes) with dark stone fruit qualities that feel decadent rather than fresh.
Finish
Sweet with oak presence; cedar notes present but not overwhelming; continues the wine-like character from the nose.
Top notch
An exceptional single barrel with a distinctly sweet, wine-influenced profile that balances dark fruit and oak in a textbook expression of quality craftsmanship.
