The brand Four Roses is known for its small batch bourbon, a favorite among bartenders, but it also puts out smaller limited edition releases occasionally — and a new edition is coming soon. The 2024 Limited Edition Small Batch Bourbon will be released next month, in time for National Bourbon Heritage Month, and will surely be of interest to collectors and enthusiastic bourbon drinkers.

The 2024 release is a blend of four batches which have been aged between 12 and 20 years, and is non-chill filtered with a proof of 108.2. The Four Roses brand has ten different bourbon recipes which are combined in various ways to create its finished bottles, and this particular release will incorporate the OBSV, OESK, OESF, and OBSV recipes. The flavors offered include berry and citrus, with vanilla and honey on the nose and a gentle spicy, smooth finish.

The limited edition will be around 16,000 bottles, which will be sold across the U.S. for $220. The release does on sale on September 14, and can be purchased from retail stores or from the brand’s visitor centers in Lawrenceburg, Kentucky and Cox’s Creek, Kentucky.
