Peerless Double Oaked Bourbon
107.1 Proof
4 Years
Straight Bourbon
Peerless Distillery
$80-89
Nose
Chocolate with a spicy, peppery bite. Notes of orange peel, chocolate, and a tart, pastry-like quality with sweetness.
Palate
Combination of aged and new oak flavors with prominent chocolate and hazelnut notes. Brown sugar, baking chocolate with slight bitterness, campfire notes, and citrus elements that open up with time.
Finish
Medium finish with slight tannic dryness and astringency balanced by wood sugars. No harsh Kentucky hug due to sweet mash approach.
Overall Score
3.8 / 5
A well-crafted double oak bourbon with complex flavors that opens up over time, though some may find it overly oaky for the $80-89 price point.
