The Four Roses Bourbon distillery is located in Lawrenceburg, Kentucky, along the banks of the Salt River in Anderson County. The distillery features distinctive Spanish Mission style architecture, a design rarely seen in Kentucky, and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
The company attributes the quality of its products to several key factors, including a unique limestone water source drawn from the spring fed Salt River, and carefully selected high quality grain. Four Roses is the only distillery to have used the same grain supplier for more than 45 years, reflecting its commitment to premium quality.
Production involves two mash bills, one of which contains significantly more rye than most other bourbon recipes, creating a spicy and full bodied flavour. The distillery also uses five proprietary yeast strains, each contributing different flavour characteristics to the final whisky.
