Brand Statement At Four Roses, we make bourbon differently. We leverage 2 mash bills and 5 yeast strains to create layers of complexity and nuances within each variant we produce. Notably, both mash bills use a higher amount of rye, setting us apart from traditional bourbon makers. And it's this Signature Mellow Spice that defines Four Roses. We're proud to offer bourbon lovers this one-of-a-kind mellow rye experience – from beginners to experts. Our bourbon is balanced, complex and most of all, inviting. And that's why people keep coming back and reaching for Four Roses. The Legend of Four Roses The Legend of Four Roses, It began when Paul Jones, Jr., the founder of Four Roses Bourbon, became smitten by the beauty of a Southern belle. It is said that he sent a proposal to her, and she replied that if her answer were “Yes,” she would wear a corsage of roses on her gown to the upcoming grand ball. Paul Jones waited for her answer excitedly on that night of the grand ball…when she arrived in her beautiful gown, she wore a corsage of four red roses. He later named his Bourbon “Four Roses” as a symbol of his devout passion for the lovely belle, a passion he thereafter transferred to making his beloved Four Roses Bourbon. Visit Four Roses Statement One trip to our historic Distillery on the scenic Salt River in Lawrenceburg, or to our unique single-story rack Warehouse and Bottling facility nestled in the quiet Kentucky countryside at Cox’s Creek, and you’ll experience first-hand the passion that goes into creating our signature bourbons. Distillery and Bottling experiences are available year-round to learn about our long-standing history, unique approach to the bourbon-making process, and to sample our premium bourbons.
