Four Roses Single Barrel OBSV Recipe
The Four Roses Single Barrel OBSV Recipe is the flagship expression of Four Roses’ single-barrel lineup, known for its classic, balanced bourbon profile. Featuring a high-rye mash bill and the V yeast strain’s delicate fruit and floral characteristics, this bourbon is aged between 7 and 9 years and bottled at 100 proof (50% ABV) to showcase its richness and complexity.

Why It Stands Out:
