OBSV

DELICATE FRUIT AND RYE

Well admit it: Four Roses Bourbon-making process isnt the simplest out there. But combining two unique mashbills with five proprietary yeast strains to handcraft 10 distinct Bourbons allows us to achieve an endless range of flavor profiles unmatched in the industry. Each Bourbon recipe brings something different to the batch and meticulously blending them to achieve the perfect bottle of Bourbon is all part of our craft.

This month, were highlighting OBSV. It is made from our B mashbill a high-rye mix that yields a spicy, full-bodied taste; this combines with the V yeast strain, which adds delicate fruit, for a wonderfully balanced final product.

OBSV is the most rounded and versatile of our recipes at all ages. The extra rye of the B mashbill creates the dominant flavor with this recipe. The bright and slightly spicy character is apparent at any age, and the delicate fruit flavors created by the V yeast strain round out the complex palate with flavors of apricot, pear and plum. As this recipe ages in the barrel, the typical caramel and vanilla flavors develop, but the rich flavor of cocoa, cinnamon, and nutmeg are especially pronounced in the OBSV recipes. Overall the OBSV recipe is rich, bright, and complex with a long and mellow finish.
