Four Roses Single Barrel Limited Edition 2014 Release Barrel Strength Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey

Per the Four Roses website the letters for their releases means the following – O = Designates produced at the Four Roses Distillery in Lawrenceburg, KY. E = The mashbill that is 75% corn, 20% rye, 5% malted barley. B = The mashbill that is 60% corn, 35% rye, 5% malted barley. S = Designates straight whiskey distillation. V/K/O/Q/F = Yeast strain used to create flavor characteristics. So this release’s recipe (OESF) is an 11 year old – 75% Corn, 20% rye, 5% malted barley. So now that we’ve cleared that up, let’s discuss what to expect from this year’s release.

Four Roses Single Barrel Limited Edition 2014 Release Barrel Strength Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey Tasting Notes

Nose: Floral, Vanilla, Oak, Hint of Honey, cloves and carmel candy.

Palate: Ripe stone fruits with a floral sweetness followed by a cinnamon wallop that hits you the longer you hold it on your tongue. This is a very peaceful dram for a barrel strength release. The mouthfeel is very balanced and smooth, little oily at first that becomes slightly drier as the cinnamon driven heat comes to the fore.

Finish: Long finish, cinnamon and spicy.

Distillery Information

Four Roses Distillery is a special place with a special page in history. One of only six distilleries that were permitted to operate during Prohibition to produce medicinal Bourbon, it has an intriguing history. Sitting on the banks of the Salt River in the serene rural part of Kentucky, it saw ups and downs, until it was resurrected in 2002.
