Four Roses Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey Review
Made using a complex mix of mash bills and yeast strains, this bourbon is surprisingly well-balanced and has a delicate, nuanced flavor profile. Its aromas include toasted nuts and dried fruits, while the palate exhibits smoky oak flavors and sweet caramel notes. Perfect for sipping neat, this bourbon also mixes balanced cocktails, within which it promises not to overpower.
