Four roses

Origin

Origin takes you back to 1888, where the Four Roses story begins with Paul Jones Jr.'s timeless romantic gesture—laying the foundation for the premium heritage bourbon we are today. Distilled in 2002 and aged to its peak before being transferred to stainless steel vats, this inaugural release is a 21-year-old, barrel-strength OBSF, available in 750ml bottles.
