About us
Kentucky Peerless Distilling Company's roots extend back to 1889, when Henry Kraver began crafting spirits of exceptional quality. Corky and Carson Taylor, fourth and fifth-generation descendants of Kraver, revived the craft in their state-of-the-art distillery located in Louisville, Kentucky. All under one roof, select Peerless grains are milled, cooked, fermented, double-distilled, and barreled as bourbon and rye. Peerless's award-winning spirits are never sourced. Crafted with sweet mash, never chill filtered, and bottled at barrel proof for you to enjoy.

You will find Henry Kraver's signature on every bottle of Peerless. Kraver, the founder of Peerless and the current owner's great-grandfather, was an innovator and a true entrepreneur at heart. #DSPKY50 #Peerless #KentuckyPeerlessDistillingCo #KentuckyPeerlessDistilling #KentuckyPeerlessDistillery #PeerlessBottle #Kraver #HenryKraver

Peerless High Rye Bourbon is the first Peerless release to be crafted with a unique mash bill. Up until this release, the Peerless mash bill has remained consistent through our Bourbon and Barrel Finished Bourbon offerings. The new mash bill introduces a higher rye content than previous Bourbon offerings. Despite being corn-based, bourbon owes much of its flavor to other grains. Our Kentucky Peerless High Rye mash bill has a higher percentage of rye grain, emphasizing its sweet & spicy contribution. Peerless High Rye Bourbon offers a savory nose highlighting warm seasoned oak, leather, and citrus. Cedar, dark fruit, and sweet grasses further develop the complex aroma. The palate 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.

Kentucky Peerless uses a sweet mash, meaning no spent stillage is reused in our process. Every batch starts with clean, fresh water and ensures consistency in each of our cooks. #Peerless #kentuckypeerless
