Bee’s Knees Peachy Keen, Batch No. 4

Bee’s Knees Peachy Keen, Batch No. 4

Last night we started bottling batch no. 4 of Bee’s Knees Peachy Keen. This is our first batch from Rich Lady peaches, which rested for 2 months in a 15-gallon, white American oak barrel.

The Wildflower Honey from Silver Bow in Moses Lake complements the peaches. The nose is great and quite peachy.

The next batch of Peachy Keen Bee’s Knees® will be distilled from Rich Lady peaches from Gilbert Orchards in Yakima, Washington. Rich Lady peaches have a warm yellow flesh, a rich dark red skin, and they smell delightful. This batch should be available in about 4 months.
