FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Kentucky Peerless Distilling Co.
March 22, 2023
Kentucky Peerless announces the release of their High Rye Bourbon. The release will take place at the Peerless distillery at 120 North 10th Street, Louisville, KY 40202 on Saturday, April 15, 2023. Bottles will be available on a first-come-first-served basis. Bottle signings will be offered throughout the event. The first 200 bottles sold will be specially labeled and hand-numbered.
Peerless High Rye Bourbon is the first Peerless release to be crafted with a wholly unique mash bill since their Peerless Bourbon and Peerless Rye. Up until this release, the Peerless mash bill has remained consistent through their Bourbon and Barrel Finished Bourbon offerings. The new mash bill introduces a higher rye content than previous Bourbon offerings.
This Peerless High Rye Bourbon release offers a savory nose highlighting warm seasoned oak, leather, and citrus. Cedar, dark fruit, and sweet grasses further develop the complex aroma. The first sip boasts candied oak topped with toasted sugar and charred orange. A bright tea freshness emerges from the sweetness and a thick mouthfeel. Another sip adds warm leather and rich tobacco to the profile—the competing sweet and earthy notes tussle in an exciting finish.
After the success of their various award-winning Bourbon and Rye expressions, Peerless continued to innovate with various aspects including an altered mash bill and ultimately make the High Rye Bourbon expression a regular offering.

The distillery is open for tours and tastings by reservation Monday through Saturday 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
