The Story
Cognac Barrel Finished Bourbon consists of Peerless Small Batch Bourbon that undergoes an additional aging process in barrels that previously held a premium cognac. This finishing process imparts unique flavors to the bourbon, blending the rich, sweet, and spicy characteristics of bourbon with the fruity, floral, and nutty notes from the cognac-soaked barrels. The Peerless team strategically selects Bourbon barrels that will create the perfect blend, highlighting the traits received from the cognac barrel.Â
Tasting NotesÂ
Nose: Fresh raisins, sweet herbs, and spices, toffee pudding, sweet rich tobacco, caramel apple, plums, fruit market, toasted honey, vanilla bean, maple syrupÂ
Taste: cranberry raisin bread, muscadine grapes, port wine, chocolate, leather, freshly baked apricot, crisp lingering pear
