Released in April 2023, this high-rye bourbon is distilled and bottled by Kentucky Peerless. We know the mashbill is "high-rye," which doesn't have a legal definition but usually suggests at least 20% rye. The mashbill is undisclosed, though, so we don't really know how much rye to anticipate. Peerless does tell us that this is its first release to be made with a mashbill that's different from its standard one and contains a "much higher rye content." High-rye bourbons are perfect for any drinker who likes the sweetness of their bourbon balanced out by some spicy notes.
