Four Roses Private Selection Single Barrel Barrel Strength Bourbon

OESK

Just finished the last of this OESK. Bottled October 2017. Aged 9 years 4 months. 111.2 proof. High rye mash bill. Nose is caramel, butterscotch, toffee, dark bread. Flavor is spicy up front. Mostly cinnamon and pepper. Sweet toffee in the mid palate, finishing with a nice spicy kick.

OBSV 63.6.

Bottle opened for about a month and it’s fairing better. Cox/Evergreen store pick (Louisville) 125 proof Nose: Sweet fruits, reminds me of dark cherries or raisins, some oak sugars...slight citrus on subsequent nosings Palate: rich and a moderate amount of spice, slight nuttiness Finish: medium finish, some Kentucky hug, but smooth overall This OESV is just fantastic.

OESQ 2018 at 58.4%. Magnificent!
