And you know how we always talk about the angel share, the evaporation of the whiskey going up?

But I have to tell you that sometimes that evaporation takes some of the off notes of a product.

So you wonder if those angels up there are going, too much tannin, too much acid hello everybody and welcome to episode

of a bourbon pursuit I'm Kenny one of your host and let's run through just a

little bit of the news four roses small batch select has hit in five markets across the United States.

We did a behind-the-scenes video with Master Distiller Brent Elliott during the Media Day for this particular release.

Brent shares a lot of the information on the

Mashbell breakdown, which particular versions he wanted to go into this blend, and why he even

in our show notes as it was previously aired on YouTube and

Facebook. Now, the other kind of fun thing about this release is a fool in his money. You've got to

remember, this is a product extension, a line extension of Four Roses. That means it's going to be

widely available. But the first bottle hit secondary and sold for around $200. And now that we know

that the bottles just keep popping up, that there's a lot of groups that are doing cost plus

shipping. Plus, there's a myriad of retailers out there that are able to get this to your doorstep

just through online purchases. So just a humble word of advice,

don't overpay if you don't need to.

The retail cost is somewhere between $55 and $65

depending on your region.

Derby season is finally upon us,

and that means I get to make my annual big batch
