- Description
- Four Roses Small Batch Select is the first permanent addition to Four Roses' range under master distiller Brent Elliott, combining six of the brand's ten yeast and mash bill recipes—including the OBSV, OESV, OBSK, OESK, OBSF, and OESF variants. This complex blend marries bourbon's typical notes of vanilla, caramel, and oak with floral and fruity characteristics drawn from Four Roses' diverse yeast strains, creating a whiskey with layered complexity and approachability. At 52% ABV, the spirit presents with good weight and warmth while remaining smooth enough for both neat sipping and cocktails. A versatile bourbon for enthusiasts seeking depth beyond single-recipe expressions.
