ABOUT

This bourbon is one of two Four Roses products that are sold only in Japan, with the other being Four Roses Black Label. 

Four Roses Super Premium is a completely different product than what you can buy in the U.S. While it uses the same traditional Four Roses recipes, the percentages are different than what you will find in a Four Roses Yellow or Four Roses Small Batch in the U.S. It’s rumored that Super Premium uses several of the recipes, and 80% of the Bourbon must have been aged a minimum of 8 years while 20% aged 10 years or greater. The bourbon is dumped from the barrel at the Four Roses distillery in Kentucky and then sent over to Kirin in Japan for bottling and distribution.

Additionally, while this is an export-only bourbon, it is bottled at 750ml versus the standard 700ml that many other export-only bourbons are bottled at, including Four Roses Black Label. The bottle contains the classic embossed Four Roses flower symbol that can be found on other bottlings. However, the symbol itself is made of a light metal versus glass. Incidentally, this bourbon is also sometimes referred to as Four Roses “Platinum.”
