Overview

Four Roses Anthology is an ultra-premium limited bourbon series from Four Roses Distillery in Lawrenceburg, Kentucky. The series is designed to showcase rare barrels, mature stocks, and the depth of the distillery’s ten-recipe system in a highly limited format.

Anthology sits above the core Four Roses lineup and alongside annual limited releases such as Limited Edition Small Batch. It gives Four Roses a luxury collector platform for deeper exploration of its recipe library and older whiskey inventory.

Brand History

Four Roses announced Anthology as a new annual limited series in 2026, beginning with a 19-year-old release called Volume I: OBSK. That first edition focused on one of the distillery’s recipe codes and emphasized both age and recipe identity.

Because Anthology is new and intended as an annual series, each volume should be covered individually for bottle-level details such as recipe code, age, proof, bottle count, and release availability.
