The Legendary Four Roses “Power of Ten” Bourbon System 🥃

What truly separates Four Roses from every other Kentucky bourbon distillery is its revolutionary 10-recipe system.

Four Roses combines:

Two Distinct Mash Bills

  • High rye mash bill (35% rye) for bold spice and complexity
  • Lower rye mash bill (20% rye) for softer, sweeter character

Five Proprietary Yeast Strains

Each yeast strain contributes unique bourbon aromas and flavors:

  • Floral
  • Fruity
  • Herbal
  • Spicy
  • Delicate and creamy

By combining mash bills and yeast strains, Four Roses creates ten distinct bourbon recipes—allowing for incredible flavor diversity rarely seen in American whiskey production.

This innovative approach gives Four Roses bourbons their signature balance of spice, fruit, elegance, and smooth drinkability.
