Peerless Double Oak Bourbon

We craft our bourbon from grain to bottle. The process takes time,
but we wanted to create an authentic product for you that isn’t found elsewhere.

Exposing Peerless Bourbon to two separate casks allows for two full barrel extractions. The result? Supercharged notes give this whiskey supreme complexity and mouthfeel. Our dedicated tasting team strategically selects barrels with prominent grain, fruit, and herbaceous notes as they are complemented well by the extra barrel character. This ultimately makes for a population of barrels that are packed with flavor, yet balanced enough to uphold the Peerless name.
Double Oak Bourbon Tasting Notes

 The nose opens with sweet oak accented with orange zest and cedar. Aromas of tobacco and herbs soon join. The first sip leads with a honey sweetness before swiftly shifting to cinnamon and spicy oak. Another sip adds leather for an earthy balance while displaying an amazing body. The finish continues to celebrate the viscous mouthfeel with notes of sweet, toasted oak and dry cocoa.

 

Every drop of Peerless® Whiskey is honestly crafted, never sourced. Never chill-filtered.
Strictly sweet mash. Barrel proof. No water added. Made in the USA.

Rum Barrel Finished Bourbon Tasting Notes

Toasted citrus and molasses lead off a dark and savory nose. Aromas of sweet cedar, salty air, and a distant coffee-house add further intrigue. The first sip is deep, dark, and spicy. Waves of cinnamon, orange bitters, and heavily toasted sugar wash over the palate. Another taste delivers spicy cedar and fermented dark fruit, while the mouthfeel slowly thickens. The palate evolves during the finish to showcase sweet grasses, complex botanicals, and smoked honey. - Cheers!

Peerless Toasted Bourbon

Aged in Two Separate Oak Barrels

Peerless® Toasted Bourbon is aged in two separate oak barrels.  It is initially aged in their standard, char level 3, barrel. This process develops the desired flavor profiles of caramel, brown sugar, and toffee. The already barrel-aged whiskey is then placed in a toasted barrel to finish. The toasted barrel adds more complexity with honey, vanilla, toasted spices, and chocolate.  The unique aging process allows for an elevated nose and palate.

“We hand-select each barrel for the finishing process. We chose to use a medium toast because it contains less tannins which results in a more aromatic whiskey with warm, sweet, savory character and strong vanilla overtones,” explains Peerless Head Taster John Wadell.

 

About the Barrels

The Kelvin Cooperage Difference

Kelvin Cooperage strives to obtain the best oak and utilizes the most current machinery while remaining true to time-tested traditional cooperage techniques. Their dedication to maintaining the highest level of quality and service is evident in the care taken at every step of the coopering process.

They’ve opted to use a traditional, non-mechanized process, crafting and charring barrels by hand. Each barrel is treated uniquely. To take it a step further, Kelvin Cooperage has made it a standard practice to perform an extended toast on each barrel to enhance flavor. No fuel is added when charring, leaving the most genuine oak profiles for aging whiskey.

 

Barrel #1

Toasted Bourbon is aged in our standard char level 3 barrel for 5 years. It takes about 30-35 seconds to achieve the perfect flavor profile with a char level 3. Hemicellulose starts breaking down into wood sugars and the wood caramelizes inside the barrel. This process develops our desired flavor profiles. Think caramel, brown sugar, and toffee.

Barrel #2

The already barrel-aged whiskey is then placed into a toasted barrel to finish. This toasted barrel adds more complexity with honey, vanilla, toasted spices, and chocolate!
