Peerless Double Oaked Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey

Crafted from grain to bottle in Louisville, Kentucky, this release from Peerless was aged in two new oak casks.
Exposing Peerless Bourbon to two separate casks allows for two full barrel extractions, the result being supercharged notes that give this whiskey supreme complexity and mouthfeel. Peerless’s dedicated tasting team strategically selects barrels with prominent grain, fruit, and herbaceous notes as they are complemented well by the extra barrel character. This ultimately makes for a population of barrels that are packed with flavour, yet balanced enough to uphold the Peerless name.
The ABV varies from batch to batch. 

    Nose:    The nose opens with sweet oak accented with orange zest and cedar. Aromas of tobacco and herbs soon join.

    Taste:    The first sip leads with a honey sweetness before swiftly shifting to cinnamon and spicy oak. Another sip adds leather for an earthy balance while displaying an amazing body.

    Finish:   The finish continues to celebrate the viscous mouthfeel with notes of sweet, toasted oak and dry cocoa.

The urban Peerless distillery is located in the Bourbon District of downtown Louisville, Kentucky. Originally operating as Worsham Distilling Company, Kentucky Peerless Distilling Company began in Henderson, Kentucky in the early 1880s. In 1889, Peerless Whiskey production began to flourish under the leadership of the entrepreneur Henry Kraver.
After five generations of bourbon makers, The Peerless distillery is now a state-of-the-art facility with cutting-edge technology, making it one of the most automated distilleries. All under one roof, select Kentucky Peerless grains are milled, cooked, fermented, double-distilled, barrelled and bottled as bourbon and rye whiskey.
