This bottle is my best hunting story to date. Went to the distillery with a friend who won the lottery right to buy. 2 months later I found it mislabeled at a local store for $99. I may have pulled something running out the door as fast as I did.
I wouldn't ask questions either!
I hope you bought a case at that steal of a price. You did good!!
@@sorinsrn5442 I definitely asked if they had more and they didn’t haha
I got a bottle of the 2022 from a store that put it on the Small Batch line and I got it for $36😅😂
@@evansboyle 😂😂 even better, lucky guy...
So I work at a fancy whiskey bar in Idaho and apparently there were 15 bottles of Four Roses 135th in the state! We were very lucky to have 2 bottles! The first bottle we opened (I was the first to try it) it was exceptional! The first bottle was gone in less than 3 weeks! When we opened our second bottle, a group of 5 ppl showed up at our bar just 30 mins before we closed and the man that was buying offered me a pour! He bought his family and myself a full pour of 135th! I cheers with them and I couldn't have been happier! Our second bottle is almost out! We have probably a quarter of it left! If you ever see a bottle, I implore you all to try that bourbon before it's gone! Four Roses fucking nailed it!!!
where? I want to come try it!

This is my dream unicorn. Four Roses is my favorite distillery and I hate that I’ll never find that bottle.
I won the lottery for this bottle and flew from AZ to Kentucky just to pick it up. Wasn't disappointed.
4R SBLE 135th has every flavor under the sun buried in it somewhere, it's great.
Me and this bottle GOT. IT. ON.
No, no you didn’t
No, I didn’t. But if I did!
I want this bottle so freakin bad. Got to have a 2oz pour celebrating my engagement and it was a special experience.
I traded for this bottle several months ago and just cracked it open last weekend. It is fantastic. 🥃
I had a pour of this at the four roses distillery on my 35th birthday and thought it was insanely good. At first I thought to myself, is it this good because it’s my birthday and I am here or is it really that good? And it had nothing to do with it being a bday celebration. It truly is remarkable whiskey.
My favorite distillery for over 50yrs 👍😉🥃
So I just happened to get one of these. And now I want to rush home and open this up. Damn. This sounds amazing. Cheers
“ Can the smell have a long finish ?” - Dan
I literally lost it 🤣🤣🤣
Herbal peach tea sounds class! Just waiting on the FR single barrel, arrives soon, a huge step down from this I know but still excited! Cheers! 🥃
I got this at MSRP at a Safeway. Saving for my first anniversary.
Just saying, it should bring tears to your eyes whiskey of the year level. God tier whiskey
Also Dan, if you look at their website there is a statement of ages of whiskey put in. Not an explicit age statement on the bottle I know, but they do at least state that 12, 14, 16, 25 yo bourbons are in there
Herbal peach tea is the best description of four roses I’ve ever heard
I snagged one at Mega-Bev Battle Creek a few weeks ago! I can't wait to crack it open and review it!
My favorite pour of all time. Snagged one at MSRP from an event.
"Can we borrow your bottle of whisky?" year right, fallen for that one too many times!!😆
In Germany is around 250 Euros. Four Roses makes some good whisky. I allways have on my shelf the FR Single Barrel 100 proof. Excelent pour!!!
That's cheap for this bottle. I paid 350 for mine in NL
Great vlog love it
Best 4R I have ever had bar none! Phenomenal bottle.
barrel proof elmer? HELL YEAH, BRING IT.
Russel’s for 30 is my pick just can’t beat it!
Couldn’t agree more!!! I can never find them or afford them in secondary, no matter how reckless I get. I see them for like $1000…when I’m in Kentucky. I did spend several hundred dollars on pours at the distillery though. Even though I’m not a huge drinker if the standard offerings…the LE stuff is incredible. Sooooo jealous!
lol!!! Bro is fuuuked up 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I lucked into a 21 and it’s phenomenal. I’d love to find a 135 for a reasonable price
I got a bottle of this. Had to pay a small premium for it. But damn was it worth it. I think it may be the best bottle I’ve ever had.
I recently blinded this and the past 2 years releases. Ended up scoring them oldest best but I think it maybe is a result of difference oxidation levels/air exposure. They are all amazingly good.
You guys should try the 2019 four roses LE…. Such a special bottle
Four Roses...never been blown away by the distillery tasting notes...
Same here but this one is different !!!
I have a bottle of this & can confirm. This is the best bottle I own & have tasted. I paid 240$ for it. The only whiskey that has blow my entire skirt up.
Got a bottle from my local store and it’s probably the best bottle I own.
I just went to a four roses dinner event at a restaurant out here in Arizona… we got to compare the 2021,2022 and 2023 of that and the 2021 was the best of the 3.. 2023 was better than 2022..
I had a choice between this Four Roses LE and Blantons Gold last year. I went with the Blantons gold because I've never really had much Four Roses and while I find regular Blantons underwhelming I at least like it ok. Regretting that decision.
Terrible decision
Oak is amazing
So I have been watching whiskey tube for a couple years now and I finally think I am ready to try and become a Patreon for the 1st time ever. I am starting to lean towards you guys and supporting the channel. How can I get more information on the specifics?
What do the tier picks mean in the packages?
Like what do you mean specifics? They all work the same, whenever a channel does picks they drop from in order of the highest pledge tier to the lowest until sold out.
@@brandon_sprague Those would be the specifics. I have never done one so I don't know how they work.
@@brentsilva6406 join the free tier of the patreon. It’s free and when posts are made for drops you get all this info.
@bourbonjunkies My local store has 13 of these left on the shelf at usd 210.. and there is another store that has 28 pcs as we speak, same price 😎 But this is Norway, and few people appreciate a great bourbon 😩 Great for us that love them though..
Sounds like I need a vacation to Norway
damn I was in Norway on a cruise didn't see these anywhere not in bergen or any of the other places I stopped.
Well, one of the stores in Norway is my local one, and thats where they had 13 yesterday… so you were only unlucky to not walk into the right store.
Sorry, one of the stores in Bergen..
@martins.h.9076 yeah I would say super unlucky for sure.
🥜#. The first time I tried four roses single barrel basic I just tasted apricot juice no alcohol. Ive only found spice on it ever since like I'm chasing my first high and can't replicate it.
Four Roses is 120 barrel entry proof. I do wonder if it was lower for some of the older casks in that release?
Costs $206 in Norway and still relatively available, itˋs a 700 ml bottle though. Got one open and considering buying one more.
Would for sure be doing that!
I do like Four Roses Select .
It's so effing good
I think I need to open my 130th and enjoy it. Your observation of the 135th is amazing
130th also is incredible
Had this one in a tasting and it beat the brakes off the 125th just saying
Cookie been threatened with all kinds of rear play lately.
Indy J sent me a sample of this tasted like.Old turkey to me awesome tho
A localish bar had this as a break even bottle one night. I drove 30 minutes to try a one ounce pour of this for like $9. I then traded a Stagg plus a Jack toasted rye for a bottle. I’ll miss the Jack most because of how limited they were but I’ve got no buyers remorse.
That's awesome that the bar would do that for people though, hate when they charge $100+ per oz for it to sit there.
Saw it yesterday for $250 out the door. Didn’t pick in up and now I am sad lol.
Good lord that would’ve been the easiest $250 of my life haha
I believe $225 is MSRP so yes you absolutely should have
Man who still has it close to msrp?! Grab grab grab
damn what were ya thinking 😂
We want the price you'd pay per bottle if you saw it in a store in addition to pour price, muchos gracias 👊🏻 🍻
Website says its aged 12-25 years
I mean there are some wild age statements on there sure, but I'd love to see the break down of how much of each year was in that blend. It for sure tastes like it has some old whiskey in there though!
@@BourbonJunkies Age: 12 years (a blend of 12-25 year barrels)
40% 14 year OESK barrels
35% 12 year OESV barrels
20% 16 years OESV barrels
5% 25 years OBSV barrels
still wating for garrison blind or Balmorea/Guadalupe
Do you guys ever take a week or two without any whisky? I think it’s healthy to take stock and ensure a habit isn’t developing. Just asking without judgement. You guys seem to drink a lot of whisky. Love your channel.
can't find this for under 350 so save my life
Hi
I know where there is one bottle of this wish it wasn't 400 :(
Tipping offered it to me at 250 during the holidays and I passed. Whoops. Paid 150 for a single barrel barrel proof
Yea not sure what you were thinking there bud
Borrowed a really nice bottle.... flip it Dan flip it... lol
HA - $40? no chance you see this less than $100 per oz
I mean one can hope I guess?
A new week and another "best bottle of the year?" from the BJ bros . . jk jk jk
Ja ja el gato ….
Store near me has it for 500
I hate paying secondary but I would buy it!
@@gewatzig123 it's in Richmond Michigan. I got mine from the distillery lottery but I'm almost out 😂
@@nickwinton I don't blame you 🤣
First
So, it's another fucking thing that I'll never see or taste. Enjoy fellas.
These are such sleepers in secondary it’s not even funny. Hopefully it stays that way..
NEED AN ANSWER PLS! I can get a bottle at $600 , yes or no??
Suck
