Kentucky Peerless Single Barrel Bourbon — Vintage Manhattan
around 110 proof
Bourbon
Kentucky Peerless Distilling Company
Nose
Very sweet, floral, and aromatic. Winey character with dark stone fruit notes that are musty rather than fresh. Hints of Luxardo cherry syrup.
Palate
Sweet and everywhere at once. Very viscous with a dark cherry, plum, and raisin character. Carries flavor coating the tongue. Drinkable without harshness despite high proof.
Finish
Sweet and dark with complexity, retaining the floral and fruity character throughout.
Overall Score
4.5 / 5
A exceptional single barrel with textbook quality, delivering impressive sweetness, florality, and dark fruit complexity in a single expression.
