- Background:
Four Roses Small Batch Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey is hand crafted
and created from four original and proprietary Bourbons expertly
selected by the Master Distiller. The end result is a mellow
symphony of sweet fruity aromas and rich, spicy flavors.
Introduced in the fall of 2007, Four Roses Small Batch Bourbon is only
sold in Kentucky and quickly sold out of the first bottling.
Made in the quiet Kentucky countryside near Lawrenceburg, and on the
banks of the scenic Salt River, the Four Roses Distillery makes the trip
to this very mellow place all that more rewarding. The Distillery was
built in 1910 and features a unique Spanish Mission-Style architecture
rarely seen in Kentucky. It is listed on the National Register of
Historic Place. The Four Roses name is a
standard in the Bourbon industry and
dates back to the 1860s and grew to become the top-selling bourbons in
the U.S. throughout the 1930s, '40s and '50s.
