Non-chill filtered. The 2022 Limited Edition Small Batch from Four Roses — a hand-selected recipe combination from the distillery's unique 10-recipe system, assembled at natural barrel proof without dilution or filtration.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eFour Roses is unique in American bourbon for producing 10 distinct recipes — two mashbills (high-rye OBSB and low-rye OESB) crossed with five proprietary yeast strains (V, K, O, Q, F), each producing a different flavor character. The Limited Edition Small Batch draws from a Master Distiller-selected subset of these recipes each year, with full transparency about which recipes and ages were chosen. Each annual edition is therefore a documented, one-time expression — the specific barrel combination can never be exactly replicated.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe 2022 Limited Edition continues the series' tradition of barrel strength, non-chill filtered bottling — delivering the selected recipes at their full natural proof to preserve the aromatic complexity and mouthfeel that dilution and filtration would reduce. The specific recipe combination for 2022 reflects the Master Distiller's assessment of which of the 10 recipe barrels had reached their peak that year.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAppearance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Deep amber from the barrel strength concentration.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e The multi-recipe complexity of Four Roses — fruit, spice, vanilla, and oak in a layered aromatic profile unique to this annual blend.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Complex and full-bodied at barrel strength — surprisingly smooth for the proof, with the distinct character each recipe contributes to the whole.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Long and evolving — the annual LE Small Batch hallmark of a finish that rewards patience.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eDistillery:\u003c\/strong\u003e Four Roses, Lawrenceburg, Kentucky\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eBottling:\u003c\/strong\u003e Barrel strength, non-chill filtered\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eRelease:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2022 Limited Edition Small Batch\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003cp\u003eExplore the full \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/woodencork.com\/collections\/four-roses\"\u003eFour Roses collection\u003c\/a\u003e or browse all \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/woodencork.com\/collections\/bourbon\"\u003ebourbon at Wooden Cork\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eHow does the 2022 differ from the 2021 Limited Edition?\u003c\/strong\u003e Each year the Master Distiller selects a different combination of recipes and ages.
