Four Roses Single Barrel, now here’s one I’ve been looking for for a while. Incredible how low of a price it is; $34.99 for a bottle of single barrel 100 proof bourbon. It’s got some great rich color to it, and the bottle itself has a nice shape and feel in the hand. The nose is sweet and spicy at the same time. Some brown sugar and pepper, definitely that high-rye mashbill coming through. As soon as the sip hits the palate it’s a blast of sweetness, like sticky brown sugar candies. The mouthfeel is a little oily and slick. As it goes over mid-palate it takes on the rye spice character and warms up. After a sip or two I find some dark cherry notes in there as well on the back of the tongue. Nice warmth in the chest after it goes down but it’s not hot at all. Finish is pretty middle of the pack in length with a little leftover sweetness and oak on the palate. This stuff is really nice, and I’m happy to have bought a bottle. Would definitely get another given the chance.
