Peerless Small Batch Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey (109.8 Proof)
109.8 proof
4-5 years
Bourbon
Peerless Distilling Company
Louisville, KY
High rye (25-35% rye secondary grain)
Nose
Floral and cinnamon-forward with peppery notes; sweet caramel and vanilla; burnt sugar like smoldering cotton candy.
Palate
Black pepper bomb with cinnamon spice; Jolly Rancher cinnamon sweetness; not aggressive but spice-driven on the back end; no Kentucky hug from the sweet mash.
Finish
Long finish with lingering sweetness and spice on the back of the tongue.
Recommended
A beautifully balanced high-rye sweet mash bourbon with excellent spice complexity and a pleasurable long finish that avoids the harshness of sour mash.
