Four Roses Small Batch 2016 Around The Corner
In mid-September, just a week or two away, Four Roses will distribute 9,258 hand-numbered bottles of its 2016 Limited Edition Small Batch Bourbon.
Master Distiller Brent Elliott selected a 12-year-old Bourbon from Four Roses’ OESO recipe, a 12-year-old OBSV and a 16-year-old OESK, for this year’s batch. It is the first time in more than seven years that the OESO recipe has appeared in a Limited Edition Small Batch.
“When I tasted the sample from that OESO barrel, I knew I wanted it to anchor this Limited Edition Bourbon,” Elliott said. “We were able to highlight its exceptional fruitiness and balance it out with more age and spice from the two other recipes.”
Four Roses Small Batch LE 2016 is bottled at barrel strength, with a proof of 111.2. The recommended retail price is TBA.
