FOUR. ROSES - SINGLE BARREL OBSV
Kentucky straight bourbon distilled at the Four Roses Distillery, aged 7-9 years. Four Roses distills 10 different recipes (using two different mashbills and 5 different proprietary yeast strains). It identifies which recipe(s) is has used for a particular bourbon using the codes you can see below, for example OBSK. The first and third letters do not change. The 2nd letter indicates whether it is a “B” high-rye mashbill (60% corn, 35% rye, 5% malted barley) or an “E” lower-rye mashbill (75% corn, 20% rye, 5% malted barley). The final letter indicates which yeast strain was used in the recipe, each of which has a distinct flavor difference: “V” (delicate fruit), “K” (slight spice), “O” (rich fruit), “Q” (floral essence), or “F” (herbal notes). Their Small Batch Bourbon is created using their OBSV recipe (delicate fruit and rye).
From the Brand: For someone who wants a more complex bourbon experience, Four Roses Single Barrel embodies the uniqueness of an individual barrel hand-selected by our Master Distiller. It achieves a pronounced yet elegant flavor that is worth savoring. This bottle is the inspiration behind the Single Barrel Collection.
