Peerless Kentucky Rye 3 Year Old 2016 Single Cask (Master of Malt)
Though you might know the Kentucky Peerless distillery for its fantastic bourbon, did you know it also makes some remarkable rye whiskey too? We managed to scout one out and bottle it for our exclusive Master of Malt series! It was distilled in 2016, rested for three years, and then drawn from a single charred new American oak barrel. With just 84 precious bottles full of chocolate nuts, silky toffee, herbal rye, and black pepper spices, this is some seriously tasty stuff.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Toffee covered nuts and cracked black peppercorns are joined by herbal anise and oaken vanilla.
Palate
Robust layers of earthen vanilla pod, caramel, and peppery spice are supported by salty, nutty, chocolatey suggestions of Reese's Cups.
Finish
Fennel, carraway and toasted rye bread with salted butter.
