This finishing process imparts unique flavors to the bourbon, blending the rich, sweet, and spicy characteristics of bourbon with the fruity, floral, and nutty notes from the cognac-soaked barrels. The Peerless team strategically selects Bourbon barrels that will create the perfect blend, highlighting the traits received from the cognac barrel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNose : Fresh raisins, sweet herbs, and spices, toffee pudding, sweet rich tobacco, caramel apple, plums, fruit market, toasted honey, vanilla bean, maple syrup\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePalate : cranberry raisin bread, muscadine grapes, port wine, chocolate, leather, freshly baked apricot, crisp lingering pear\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout Peerless \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe first Peerless whiskey went into barrel in 1889.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe've revived the craft in our state-of-the-art distillery.\u003cbr\u003eSelect Peerless grains are milled, cooked, fermented, double-distilled, and barreled as bourbon and rye under one roof.

In 1889, Peerless Whiskey production began to flourish under the leadership of the entrepreneur. and our ancestor, Henry Kraver.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKraver wasted no time making upgrades to machinery and investing in additional warehouses that eventually became U.S. Federally Bonded following the Bottled-in-Bond Act of 1897. Thus, the production of Peerless whiskey raised substantially from eight to over two hundred barrels a day. Through the early 1920s, the Peerless federally-bonded warehouses were used for whiskey storage under the armed protection of the U.S. Government. During Prohibition, Peerless product was one of the few available by prescription for medicinal use. The original Kentucky Peerless Distilling Co. was Distilled Spirits Plant (DSP) number 50. Today, we are privileged to have that same number. The newly assigned DSP numbers are in the 20,000s. We are delighted to say DSP-KY-50 is our own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot only have Corky and Carson personally revived the Peerless heritage, but they have also restored history by designing and rebuilding the remarkable distillery as it exists in downtown Louisville today. 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, barreled, and bottled as bourbon and rye whiskey.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e56.05% ABV\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e75cl\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Peerless","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54524451848517,"sku":null,"price":279.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0941\/9495\/8661\/files\/4545746468_f5c5fe3f-abd8-4685-bd60-ea0d45358047.jpg?v=1746552146","url":"https:\/\/b1yyjg-bk.myshopify.com\/products\/peerless-cognac-barrel-finished-kentucky-bourbon-cask-strength-whiskey-batch-1-2024-75cl","provider":"Whisky Situation Old","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
