Prohibition was certainly no easy time for any distilling company but none more so than Kentucky Peerless. Before Prohibition started they were making around 10,000 barrels a year of Whiskey and their investments into the local area had put them on track to become one of Kentucky’s biggest distilleries. By 1917, every drop was out of their barrels and the company ceased production until 2015. Since reopening, Peerless has stayed true to its roots. Ancestors of the founder Henry Kraver are fully involved in reviving the business and they are determined to stay true to a handcrafted style of creating premium Whiskeys. From grinding grain to aging, everything is done in-house at Peerless, ensuring that the quality the distillery prides itself on will not be lost Jul 25, 2022 Full bodied with a surprising smoothness for Rye Whiskey.
