Kentucky Peerless Straight Bourbon Whiskey Single Barrel
114.8 proof 4 years Bourbon Peerless Distilling Company $79

Beautiful and complex with sweet tobacco and cigar tobacco notes that make it taste older than it is, reminiscent of a dusty vintage bottle. Subtle hint of sweet green and leather with old wood character.

Spicy with sugars, soft mouthfeel, not overly astringent. Hints of leather and saddle room notes. Sweet mash character creates a palatable, easy-drinking barrel-strength experience without the typical heartburn.

Lingering finish that sticks around pleasantly, occurring on the rear palate rather than a deep chest burn. Not overly spicy.

Overall Score
4.3 / 5
A gentleman's barrel-strength bourbon with complex tobacco and oak notes, smooth mouthfeel, and a refined finish that exemplifies the benefits of sweet mash production.
