Fourteen Ten are pleased to announce that Kentucky Peerless Distilling Company have just won a Gold Medal at the The American Whiskey Masters.
The award was given to their Small Batch Rye with its “hallmarks of depth and balance with notes of toasted oak, citrus zest, rye pepper, and sweet botanicals” and striking bottle, made by Verescence, the world’s leading glass manufacturer for the beauty industry, who produces the Peerless bottle in high end virgin glass, typically reserved for perfume and cosmetics.

Their passion and unending interest in Peerless has made today’s announcement possible. It is our sincere honour and privilege to now share a dram of Peerless with our friends across the Atlantic” says Cordell Lawrence, Director of Global Marketing & Strategy for Peerless Distilling Company.
