Kentucky’s billion-dollar bourbon industry profits off distilleries’ ‘synergy’: Jim Beam master distillers
Jim Beam master distillers Fred Noe and Freddie Noe, who are Jim Beam’s great and great-great grandsons respectively, discuss the American tradition and recent bourbon boom.
Four Roses Distillery, located in Lawrenceburg, Kentucky, is releasing a new 2022 Limited Edition Small Batch Bourbon next month.
"From the beginning of crafting this year’s limited edition small batch Bourbon, two particular batches stood out to me as potential candidates to go into the blend – a 14-year-old recipe batch that is remarkably smooth and rich on the palate, and a 20-year-old recipe batch that exhibits the best fruit barrel and spice qualities of extra-aged Bourbon," said Brent Elliott, Four Roses master distiller.
This will be the 15th in the Small Batch series and has a blend of four Bourbons aged 14 to 20 years. Each bottle has a high ABV of 54.5%.

"The test blends revolved around those two batches until we landed on a liquid with a perfect balance that is unique, layered, mellow and elegant," Elliott said.
There will only be 14,100 bottles to be distributed throughout the United States and each will cost $179.99.
