2015 Four Roses Small Batch Limited Edition Announced
Four Roses Small Batched Limited Edition
One of my favorite releases every fall is the Small Batch Limited Edition from Four Roses. They combine recipes from their 10 different mash bills for the release. Here’s the recipes Four Roses is using for the 2015 Small Batch:
OBSK – 16 year
OBSV – 11 year
OESK – 15 year
OESK – 14 year
Here is the 2014 release to compare

FYI – Your image links for the label are broken.
What is the typical retail price on this. Think I saw some for around $85 at my local store, wondering if its a buy at that price?
JW – That’s about the going rate, so it’s definitely a buy at that price.
If it’s the true Limited Edition Small Batch and not one of their regular offerings, I would buy every bottle they have at 85. You could double your money on secondary market very quickly.
At $85 I would buy every bottle and enjoy it.
It was a nearly impossible find back when it was released last year – at least in mid-TN.
Too bad this is as hard if not harder to find than Pappy. I have never even seen one of these bottles in the flesh.
When does this hit the market now, or is it fall? Is this image part the label approval process?
Typically, mid-September. Yes, this image is a part of the approval process so the proof may vary
I believe the suggested retail price for the 2014 small batch limited was $90. But they have discontinued production of the single barrel LE for 2015 so I’d expect all the more scarcity. Even if the suggested retail price stays the same I’d expect to see more retailers jack up the actual price, which should put upward pressure on the secondary prices as well. This year’s recipe has a nice array of older whiskey so I think odds favor another very good vintage, increasing demand further. I think I’ll buy a tent and set it up now outside my favorite store.
My specialist shop here in Copenhagen, Denmark has Four Roses Small Batch LE 2014, Single barrel LE 2013, Single Barrel LE 2014 on the shelves. Prices: $74, $89 and $103. I wonder if I should buy some.
Um yes I would…..
Are you crazy! Ahh yeah and enjoy
What shop in Copenhagen is this?
Is this the same stuff that they are selling at Total Wine right now?
No that’s just a private barrel that Total Wine picked. Still probably worth buying though
Has this hit any States yet?
If simenone buys one at $85 and wants to double their money by selling it I will gladly be the one who pays $170.00 I must get my hands on at least one one way or another!
Got one at retail but it wasn’t $85. Liquor Barn in Louisville KY was selling it for $110.
Great find! I’d pay $110 all day long
$110 isn’t bad. They keep raising prices every year on most hard to find bourbons. Hopefully retail price won’t get as high as the secondary market, but I’d rather pay a retailer then a bottle flipper. Can’t wait to pop it open and give it a test drive.
Are you still looking? I have quite a few bottles, bit the real limited edition 2015 small batch, and 1 2014 single barrel limited edition as well..
Has it been released yet in Maryland? I can’t find any information regarding.
it’s in Mass! found a bottle for 100 in Bristol County. 🙂
I wish I saw this earlier…now I’m probably too later. I’m up close to NH maybe I’ll luck out there :/
Found a bottle at total wine, apparently it was their last one, $93 2015 le
I found a few, just looked online these are selling for over 500 now.
I have some for sale, how or where can you go online and sell them?
I was working in a company, distributing FR in Lithuania.
Have stocked 12 bottles of this liquid gold. The last creation of FR Master Distiller.
Have purchase documents.
If someone is interested in buying – drop me an email at tomas.tracevskis@gmail.com
