The Specifics – 2024 Four Roses LE Small Batch
Non-chill filtered and bottled at 108.2 proof, the 2024 Limited Edition Small Batch Bourbon features four hand-selected batches aged 12 to 20 years. Chosen from Four Roses’ 10 distinct bourbon recipes, this year’s limited edition blend is composed of a 12-year-old bourbon from the OBSV recipe, a 15-year-old OESK, a 16-year-old OESF, and a 20-year-old OBSV.
“Each year, we strive to bring a new and exciting experience to your glass by blending variations of our distinct recipes to create something you’ve never tasted before from Four Roses,” said Brent Elliott, Four Roses Master Distiller. “This year, the recipes we hand-selected have created something truly vibrant, bright and unique, while still maintaining a nice delicate spice at the end.”
Tasting Notes (Accoding to Four Roses)
The four batches used to create the 2024 Limited Edition Small Batch Bourbon result in notes of creamy vanilla, honey, and brown sugar on the nose, followed by flavors of ripe berries and tangy citrus on the palate. To balance the layers of complexity and sweetness, herbal notes and Four Roses’ signature mellow spice provide a smooth finish.

This year, Four Roses will distribute approximately 16,000 750ml limited edition bottles in the United States at a suggested retail price of $220.
