Four Roses OESV 126 Proof: Bourbon Trail Tale & Review 

🔥 Four Roses!  Distillery Stop 41 of 42 on the Kentucky Bourbon Trail PLUS an OESV Private Selection Review!

Join Wayne and Rebecca from Your Bourbon Journey as they recount their momentous 49th new distillery visit to the beautiful Four Roses Distillery in Lawrenceburg, Kentucky! This stop was a critical step on their journey, leading them right up to the final stamp on the Kentucky Bourbon Trail (KBT Stamp 41!).

Wayne and Rebecca also share their insider experience from the gorgeous Four Roses campus, their memorable tour with guide Gracie, and the fascinating history of the adjacent Rick houses now owned by Wild Turkey. Plus, they share a fun bit of Kentucky bourbon trivia by hunting down the McBrayer, Kentucky sign—a nod to the family’s deep roots in the area’s distilling history!

The episode features a detailed tasting and review of a sought-after Four Roses Private Selection Single Barrel bottle—hand-selected by Master Distiller Brent Elliott himself! They dive deep into the tasting notes of this particular OESV mash bill expression (75% Corn, 20% Rye, 5% Malted Barley) that clocks in at a robust 126 Proof.

Tasting Highlights:

  • Nose: The “lower rye” mash bill combines with the ‘V’ delicate fruit yeast to present notes of springtime freshness, cinnamon, and confectionary sugar.
  • Palate: The experience shifts to a darker, more savory profile with welcome spicy notes, caramel, black pepper, and a surprising rye component.

This is a must-watch for fans of Four Roses, single barrel bourbons, and anyone following the Kentucky Bourbon Trail journey! Don’t miss their discussion on the 10 Four Roses Recipes and the unique flavor profiles of each!
