107 Liquor<\/strong> has just unveiled its latest barrel pick \u2014 a Four Roses Single Barrel OBSQ<\/strong> bottled at 61.4% ABV (122.8 proof)<\/strong>. This release is a Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey<\/strong> drawn at barrel strength<\/strong> from Warehouse No. LW<\/strong>, Barrel No. 76-5 G<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Known for their dedication to bringing exceptional single barrels to Arkansas bourbon enthusiasts, 107 Liquor\u2019s newest offering highlights one of Four Roses\u2019 most expressive and complex recipes \u2014 the OBSQ<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

\ud83c\udf39 The Legacy of Four Roses Bourbon<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Founded in the late 1800s, Four Roses Distillery<\/strong> is one of Kentucky\u2019s most historic bourbon makers. Headquartered in Lawrenceburg, Kentucky<\/strong>, the distillery is celebrated for its unique approach to whiskey making, blending both tradition and scientific precision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unlike most bourbon distilleries, Four Roses produces ten distinct bourbon recipes<\/strong>, made possible by combining two mashbills<\/strong> and five proprietary yeast strains<\/strong>. This diversity allows the brand to craft remarkably different single barrels and small batch expressions, each with its own personality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

\ud83e\uddec Decoding the Four Roses Recipe System<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Every Four Roses barrel carries a four-letter recipe code<\/strong> \u2014 such as OBSQ<\/strong> \u2014 that reveals its unique mashbill and yeast combination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here\u2019s how to read it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Letter<\/th>Meaning<\/th>Description<\/th><\/tr><\/thead>
O<\/strong><\/td>Distilled at Four Roses Distillery<\/td>All recipes start with \u201cO.\u201d<\/td><\/tr>
B<\/strong><\/td>Mashbill B \u2013 60% corn, 35% rye, 5% malted barley<\/td>Known for bold, spicy flavor and high rye content.<\/td><\/tr>
S<\/strong><\/td>Straight Whiskey<\/td>Denotes it meets the standards of straight bourbon.<\/td><\/tr>
Q<\/strong><\/td>Yeast Strain Q \u2013 Floral and aromatic<\/td>Adds elegant, rose-like notes with subtle spice and delicate fruit.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n

\ud83e\udde1 What Makes the OBSQ Recipe Special<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The OBSQ<\/strong> recipe is one of Four Roses\u2019 most aromatic profiles. It pairs the high-rye \u201cB\u201d mashbill<\/strong> with the \u201cQ\u201d yeast strain<\/strong>, resulting in a bourbon that\u2019s bright, floral, and refined<\/strong>, yet still carries the spicy backbone Four Roses is known for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Expect delicate floral aromas<\/strong>, hints of honeysuckle and rose petals<\/strong>, followed by vanilla, baking spice, and toasted oak<\/strong> on the palate. At barrel strength (122.8 proof)<\/strong>, the flavors are concentrated yet balanced \u2014 a hallmark of a well-aged, well-selected single barrel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
