Pearless Bourbon Toasted Batch #3....$89.99
Aged in Two Separate Oak Barrels
Peerless Toasted Bourbon is aged in two separate oak barrels. It is initially aged in their standard, char level 3, barrel. This process develops the desired flavor profiles of caramel, brown sugar, and toffee. The already barrel-aged whiskey is then placed in a toasted barrel to finish. The toasted barrel adds more complexity with honey, vanilla, toasted spices, and chocolate. The unique aging process allows for an elevated nose and palate.
“We hand-select each barrel for the finishing process. We chose to use a medium toast because it contains less tannins which results in a more aromatic whiskey with warm, sweet, savory character and strong vanilla overtones,” explains Peerless Head Taster John Wadell.

Barrel #1
Toasted Bourbon is aged in our standard char level 3 barrel for 5 years. It takes about 30-35 seconds to achieve the perfect flavor profile with a char level 3. Hemicellulose starts breaking down into wood sugars and the wood caramelizes inside the barrel. This process develops our desired flavor profiles. Think caramel, brown sugar, and toffee.

Barrel #2
The already barrel-aged whiskey is then placed into a toasted barrel to finish. This toasted barrel adds more complexity with honey, vanilla, toasted spices, and chocolate!
