Kentucky Peerless Small Batch Rye (Four-Year)
barrel strength 4 years Rye Kentucky Peerless Distilling Company Louisville, KY Contains corn for balance alongside rye

Dynamic and evolving nose with cedar, spice, leather, tobacco, floral notes, and citrus hints; shows complexity that changes as the glass sits with notes of spearmint, tea, and a hint of citrus.

Balanced with sweetness, spice, and floral character; soft and approachable despite barrel strength; contains notes that cross between fruity, floral, and herbaceous elements in a complementary way.

Dry orange spice character with cedar showing through; opens to sweet and savory smoke as it sits.

Really good
A remarkably balanced Kentucky rye that uses corn to add softness and floral complexity while maintaining the bold rye character, demonstrating thoughtful mashbill innovation.
