About Four Roses Limited Edition Small Batch Online
The times following Prohibition, Four Roses Kentucky Straight Bourbon became the top-selling bourbon in the United States.
The distillery was bought out by Seagram’s in 1943, and a decade later their Kentucky Straight Bourbon was discontinued, and Four Roses was moved to the European and Asian markets.
In February 2002, they were bought out again by the Kirin Brewery Company, Ltd. who restored a sense of purpose and vigor to the Four Roses enterprise.
Master Distiller Brent Elliot at Four Roses selects a few barrels of their 10 Bourbon recipes to become Limited Edition releases. These special releases are barrel strength and non-chill filtered. Their 2017 Limited Edition Small Batch Bourbon is the end product of a mixture of barrels. Four roses 135th anniversary for sale
The recipe’s fruitiness is balanced with more aged spice notes from the OBSV and OESK recipes.
The small batch blend is an incredibly balanced, imbued with bright notes of sweet cherry and crisp green apples, rich apricot and structured rye aromas.
The palate has tart citrus flavors, transitioning to hints of sweet molasses, peppery spices and decadent crème brûlée. The finish is long, with subtle hints of honey and light mint.
