Four Roses has earned a stellar reputation for producing some of the most exquisite bourbons on the market, and the 2024 Small Batch Limited Edition continues this tradition. With a robust ABV of 54.1%, this release is a testament to the craftsmanship and creativity that Four Roses is known for. The bourbon offers a complex, layered profile that will excite collectors and connoisseurs alike.

What makes Four Roses' Small Batch Limited Edition unique is the brand’s approach to blending different bourbon recipes. Four Roses is famous for its 10 distinct recipes, crafted from two mash bills and five yeast strains, creating a wide array of flavor profiles. The 2024 edition, like its predecessors, is a carefully curated blend of these recipes, selected by Master Distiller Brent Elliott for their complementary qualities.

This year’s release incorporates a mix of bourbons aged between 12 and 16 years. The specific recipes chosen for the blend remain one of Four Roses' well-kept secrets, but Elliott ensures that each selection showcases the distillery's signature balance of rich fruit, spice, and oak.

Tasting Notes
At 54.1% ABV, this Small Batch Limited Edition packs a bold punch, yet remains elegant and well-rounded. Here’s what you can expect when tasting it:

- The aroma opens with sweet floral notes, mingling with ripe fruits like peaches and cherries. Hints of vanilla, toasted oak, and light spices give it a complex and inviting scent.
- The first sip delivers a luxurious mouthfeel. Flavors of dark caramel, baking spices, and dried fruits take center stage, followed by layers of cinnamon, nutmeg, and chocolate. The higher proof amplifies these flavors without overwhelming them.
- A long and satisfying finish, where the oak becomes more pronounced alongside lingering spice and a touch of sweetness.

One of the key highlights of the 2024 edition is the age of the bourbons used in the blend. Some of the components reach up to 16 years, bringing a deep maturity and richness to the spirit. This extended aging process allows the bourbon to develop a depth of flavor, with the wood imparting nuanced characteristics like smoky vanilla and robust spice.

As with every Small Batch Limited Edition, availability will be limited, making it a highly sought-after release among bourbon enthusiasts. This year's batch is expected to see only a few thousand bottles hit the market, and collectors will be eager to secure one for their shelves. The unique blend, premium proof, and Four Roses' signature quality guarantee that it will become a coveted bottle.

Four Roses Small Batch Limited Edition 2024 is more than just another bourbon release—it's a celebration of craftsmanship, blending tradition with innovation. The combination of rare, aged bourbons and the higher proof makes this a bold yet balanced spirit that will impress even the most discerning palate. Whether you’re a long-time Four Roses fan or new to their offerings, this release is one not to miss.

If you're lucky enough to get your hands on a bottle, savor it, as it promises to be one of the standout bourbons of the year.
