Four Roses Distillery, the heritage Kentucky bourbon brand and the makers of The World's Best Single Barrel Bourbon, announces the Single Barrel Collection. The launch coincides with the 20th anniversary of Four Roses introducing its flagship Single Barrel offering, which over the years has become a beloved bar staple, earning honors such as World's Best Single Barrel at the World Whiskies Awards, Best in Class at the LA Invitational, the Bartender's Seal of Approval at the Chilled 100 Awards, and Single Barrel Bourbon of the Year at the USA Spirits Ratings.

The Single Barrel Collection will feature the first three new 100 proof Single Barrel bourbons  – OBSF, OESK, and OESO – alongside the flagship Single Barrel, OBSV. Each bottle is aged 7-9 years and highlights Four Roses' proprietary combination of mash bills and yeast strains, resulting in ten distinct recipes for a unique tasting experience. Following this first Single Barrel Collection, which will be available throughout 2025, Four Roses will continue to introduce a new set of Single Barrels each year, rotating between the nine unique recipes that complement the flagship Single Barrel recipe. This ensures a fresh, distinctive experience for Four Roses and bourbon enthusiasts.

"We are incredibly proud of the recognition our flagship Single Barrel has received over the last 20 years, so to be introducing our new Single Barrel Collection in this anniversary year is something truly special," says Four Roses Master Distiller, Brent Elliott. "Our ten recipes are central to creating Four Roses' signature mellow spice, and this collection provides the experience for fans to enjoy more of what makes our bourbons special."

The tasting notes of the Single Barrel Collection are as follows:

  • OBSV: Mash Bill B (35% rye, 60% corn) with yeast strain V, imparting rye spice, apricot, pear, cinnamon, and toasted oak.
  • OBSF: Mash Bill B (35% rye, 60% corn) with yeast strain F, imparting herbal notes, bright rye, apple, vanilla, clove, and cocoa.
  • OESK: Mash Bill E (20% rye, 75% corn) with yeast strain K, imparting baking spices, mellow oak, tea leaves, and caramel.
  • OESO: Mash Bill E (20% rye, 75% corn) with yeast strain O, imparting rich red fruit, vanilla, brown sugar, and delicate oak.

The three new Single Barrels (SRP $49.99 per bottle) will be available in early 2025, and will also be available for purchase at the Four Roses Distillery Visitor Center in Lawrenceburg, Kentucky, or at the Four Roses Warehouse & Bottling Facility in Cox's Creek, Kentucky.
