Four Roses Mariage Collection (2008 Release)

Silky in texture and gently sweet. This new “Mariage Collection” release shows a softer more elegant side of Four Roses when compared to their other bottlings (including the most recent limited edition 120th Anniversary bottling which was a much bolder affair). Notes of candied fruit black raspberry blueberry creamy vanilla cornbread and chamomile tea. Delicately spicy too with a polished oak finish. Clean on the palate and very drinkable. Four Roses utilizes a wide variety of mash bills and yeast strains and has the ability to produce a diverse array of whiskeys. This “Mariage” offering is a good example.
