Tasting Notes
Peerless 5 Year Old Single Barrel Rye is a delightful symphony of flavors that tantalizes the senses. At first whiff, the aroma seduces with sweet orchard fruits, crisp green apples, and a nutty hint of crushed peanuts. As the fragrance unfolds, rich baking spices intertwine with wafts of vanilla and toffee, creating an irresistible allure. On the palate, the fruity notes continue to delight with baked apples and toasted nuts, while charred oak and peppery rye introduce notes of stem ginger, earthy undertones, and zesty herbs. The finish is a lingering embrace of floral honey, toffee popcorn, and a zesty burst of orange, clove, and bold oak spice. At a robust 57% ABV, this five-year-old single barrel straight rye whiskey from Kentucky's Peerless Distilling Co. is a true masterpiece, meticulously selected by head distiller Caleb Kilburn for its unique character and depth.
