Undertones of caramel, vanilla bean, and a faint floral perfume add complexity, hinting at the high proof. Given it's barrel strength, expect a pleasant alcohol warmth that elevates, rather than overwhelms, the aromatics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e The entry is full-bodied and viscous, delivering an initial burst of sweet and spicy intensity. Bold notes of toasted sugar, maple syrup, and caramelized nuts are quickly followed by a medley of fruit – black cherry, fig, and orange zest. The spice character builds, with black pepper, allspice, and a deep barrel char resonating across the mid-palate. This is remarkably balanced for a barrel-strength offering, showcasing the interplay of Four Roses' diverse mash bills and yeast strains.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Long, warm, and exceedingly satisfying. The finish lingers with echoes of dark chocolate, leather, and seasoned oak. A pleasant, peppery spice persists, slowly fading into a sweet, earthy embrace. Hints of tobacco leaf and a subtle smokiness emerge, leaving a lasting impression of depth and maturity. The high proof contributes to a powerful, yet elegant, farewell.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Reserve","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48114786631898,"sku":"BOURBON-1782090857891","price":1495.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0656\/8263\/7018\/files\/main_09fe06ad-ce3e-4124-8ce0-9e834004db49.png?v=1782586748","url":"https:\/\/takeyourpickliquors.com\/products\/four-roses-limited-edition-small-batch-barrel-strength-109-proof","provider":"Take Your Pick Liquors","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
