Peerless Distilling Co. 2-year Barrel Aged Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey
If you're traveling the Kentucky Bourbon Trail we can't recommend a visit to Peerless Distilling Co. enough. A truly engaging experience and a lesson in Kentucky whiskey history, along with some incredibly tasty rye whiskey. Peerless is another resurrection story, and one that has pulled out all the stops.
Their rye is youthful, yet shows a remarkable maturity with notes of banana leaf, tropical fruit, spice and hints of caramel. The grain shines through in the aromatics, melding with the softer tones. Produced using a sweet mash, meaning they use a fresh, new set of grains for every fermentation, they take a lot of pride in their process. While they're just getting off the ground, this is the chance to start collecting with the early batches of young rye. A must have for Kentucky rye enthusiasts!
