Experience the remarkable range of Four Roses bourbon with the Four Roses Single Barrel Family Bundle, bringing together seven distinctive recipes in one premium tasting and collector’s set.
Four Roses creates its signature bourbon recipes by combining two mash bills with five proprietary yeast strains, allowing each recipe to develop its own balance of fruit, spice, grain, floral character and oak. This collection gives enthusiasts the opportunity to compare seven of those recipes side by side, from the delicate fruit and rye of OBSV to the baking spice of OBSK, the rich fruit and vanilla of OESO, and the light grain and mint character of OESF.
Every bottle is a single barrel Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey, bottled at 100 proof / 50% ABV and aged between 7 and 9 years. Because each comes from an individual barrel, subtle differences in aroma, texture and finish can make the tasting experience even more distinctive.
This seven-bottle lineup is especially suited to serious Four Roses collectors, bourbon clubs, comparative whiskey tastings, milestone gifts and premium home bars. Pour the recipes side by side to explore how mash bill and yeast selection can transform a common bourbon foundation into dramatically different flavor profiles.

How to Enjoy
For a structured tasting, pour small measures of each recipe into separate glasses and taste them side by side. A useful progression is:
OESQ → OESF → OESO → OBSV → OBSF → OESK → OBSK
This moves from softer floral and grain-driven expressions toward increasingly prominent rye and baking-spice character.
Taste each bourbon neat first, then add a few drops of water to explore how the aromas and flavors evolve. The individual bottles can also be enjoyed over a large cube or in premium bourbon cocktails such as an Old Fashioned, Manhattan or Boulevardier.
