Kentucky Peerless Distilling Co. is a historic bourbon brand that disappeared before Prohibition and came back over 100 years later.
They use sweet mash instead of the typical sour mash process for all their barrel-strength bourbon and rye.
We think of RCWS as family and Kentucky Peerless is part of our family. They treat us like one of their own.
This Single Barrels is one of the few oldest single barrels outside of the distillery own releases. Comes in at 110.5 proof with an 8 year + old age statement.
