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 that complement the extra barrel character well. This ultimately makes for a population of barrels that are packed with flavor, yet balanced enough to uphold the Peerless name.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"textbox\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e107 Proof (ABV 53%)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"textbox\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eTHE DISTILLERY\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"uabb-infobox-title-wrap\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eOriginally operating as Worsham Distilling Company, Kentucky Peerless Distilling Company began in Henderson, Kentucky in the early 1880s.
