Intro:
Four Roses Private Selects are arguably the best value in bourbon. Producing 10 different recipes regularly bottles at cask strength, plenty of variety is available to even the average consumer.
-
Nose:
Vanilla, butter cream, caramel, toffee and a hint of oak. Almost sweet / savory combo of notes.
-
Taste:
Medium oakiness, with a mildly rich mouthfeel. Middle of the road Id say. Sweet caramel, bitter floral notes and some cocoa. Really leans towards the peppery, cocoa, oaky, bitter side of the spectrum.
-
Finish:
Medium in length but some really fierce heat. Theres some brief sweetness in the form of vanilla and caramel, but the oaky peppery cocoa and tannins dominate.
-
Overall:
It's not bad, but its a bit too tannic, oaky, and bitter for me to really sing its praises. It's just fine.
