Alongside their rye, Peerless is now producing a bourbon as well. This is a 200ml flask of their bourbon, bottled at cask strength, although it does not carry an age statement. Lets see how it is.
Overall, not bad. Not incredible, but with some good age on this, I think they'll be doing just fine. I'll be generous here with the ranking, given that I think in a year or two the bourbon will be hitting quite nicely.
Thin to medium mouth feel. Mild heat. Some pepper, light must, copper and then vanilla bean. Heat grows with the palate over time.
Finish:
Short, pretty hot, but lots of pepper, tobacco, vanilla and faint freshly cut grass.
