Four Roses

Ten Recipes, One Iconic Bourbon

Originally popular in the US, Four Roses was sold only in Europe and Japan for decades after Seagram's acquired it. When Kirin purchased the brand in 2002, master distiller Jim Rutledge led a renaissance that restored it to American shelves and critical acclaim.
