Henry Kraver's Peerless in Henderson, Kentucky, was once among the largest distilleries in the state, until he closed it in 1917 ahead of Prohibition. His descendants Corky and Carson Taylor revived the name in downtown Louisville in 2015, even reclaiming the old registration, KY 50. They use a sweet mash, with no recycled stillage, and their rye came first. Taylor family's.
