Four Roses Bourbon has announced it will be launching the ‘Limited Edition Small Batch’ on September 17 for the US market. The premium expression will be the brand’s 15th addition to its line of specialty bourbons, but this iteration is one of its smoothest. The 2022 ‘Limited Edition Small Batch Bourbon boasts flavors of brown sugar, dark cherries, and seasoned oak.
Four Roses will be distributing a limited amount of the specialty bourbon at the Four Roses Distillery Visitor Center via a public lottery drawing.
"From the beginning of crafting this year’s limited edition small batch Bourbon, two particular batches stood out to me as potential candidates to go into the blend – a 14-year-old recipe batch that is remarkably smooth and rich on the palate, and a 20-year-old recipe batch that exhibits the best fruit barrel and spice qualities of extra aged Bourbon," said Brent Elliott, Four Roses Master Distiller.
