This is my first four roses single barrel private selection and I gotta say that I'm blown away. I found it at my local Costco and it's so much better than I thought it would be especially at that price point.
I enjoy barrel strength, most notably Booker's, and usually sip them very slowly to get the full effect. This one goes down so smooth and is easy to drink. I'm not great with descriptors but it's full, rich and fruity. Peach up front followed by cherry on the finish. Never really put those two together like that. I went and looked up the OBSQ recipe because I was so intrigued. I didn't get much of the floral notes or the rye spiciness. It was just really well balanced. Now I've gotta find more of these and try some of the other recipes.

Very little Four Roses makes that’s not enjoyable. And all reasonably priced.
