The Peerless name is a revived brand that first saw light in Henderson, Kentucky in the 1880s. The Kentucky Peerless Distilling Company boomed in the early 1900s under owner Henry Kraver. Though the company's Bourbon was sold during Prohibition under government licence for medical purposes, whisky production did not survive and the distillery was shut down permanently. The revival of the Kentucky Peerless Distilling Company was undertaken by Corky and Carson Taylor, the great-grandson and great-great-grandson of Henry Kraver, respectively. The new Peerless distillery is located in Louisville, Kentucky and has been in operation since 2015.

Old Forester 1910 Bourbon 46.5%
$79.99
The Old Forester 1910 is aged in a similar fashion to the venerable Woodford Double Oaked, as both are given a second charred new oak barrel for maturation, doubling down on those new oak and char notes. Evan feels the 1910 is better than the Woodford Double Oaked, but he is a bit of an Old Forester fanboy. Bottled at 46.5%.
Producer Description
"On October 22nd. 1910, a fire on the bottling line halted production of Old Forester. Mature whisky ready to be bottled, instead was stored in a secondary barrel. What emerged was a delightful whisky, remarkable enough to become an entirely new expressions – Old Fine Whisky.
Today mimicking this historic bottling, this unique expression of Old Forester has undergone a second barreling, granting it exceptional character, a smooth and sweet flavor and a clean, crisp finish. Entering the second barrel at a low 100 proof allows more of the sweet wood sugars to dissolve into the whiskey. 1910 Old Fine Whiskey is the fourth and final expression of the Whiskey Row Series, presented at 93 proof."
