How much does Four Roses Single Barrel cost in 2026?

Expect to pay $45 to $50 for a 750 ml bottle at state-run stores. Prices in control states such as North Carolina and Virginia are set statewide, which makes them a useful benchmark. Private retailers elsewhere set their own prices, so check two or three shops before you buy.

Four Roses doesn't post a suggested retail price for its core Single Barrel on its product page. The table separates the state-store retail prices, the producer's suggested prices for special releases, and labeled secondary-market estimates.

What do the Four Roses recipe codes mean?

Four Roses makes ten bourbon recipes from two mash bills and five yeast strains. Each four-letter code tells you which. (Source: Four Roses, Our Process)

• First letter, O: distilled at Four Roses Distillery.
• Second letter, mash bill: B is 60% corn, 35% rye, 5% malted barley. E is 75% corn, 20% rye, 5% malted barley.
• Third letter, S: straight whiskey.
• Fourth letter, yeast: V (delicate fruit), K (slight spice), O (rich fruit), Q (floral essence) or F (herbal notes).

So OBSV is the higher-rye B mash bill with the V yeast, and OESO is the higher-corn E mash bill with the O yeast. Prices at state stores don't change by recipe, but secondary prices for store picks do.

Single Barrel prices by bottling

Four Roses Single Barrel (OBSV), 100 proof

This is the flagship: one hand-selected barrel of the OBSV recipe, aged 7 to 9 years and bottled at 100 proof.

Four Roses lists notes of dried spice, pear, cocoa, vanilla and maple on the nose, with plum and cherry on the palate. It names the bottle the World Whiskies Awards' World's Best Single Barrel for 2024. (Source: Four Roses Single Barrel)

Price: $47.95 in North Carolina; $49.99 at Virginia ABC, on sale at $44.99 on Nov 12, 2026. (Source: Virginia ABC) The brand's lineup card calls it "Single Barrel Select," which is the same 100-proof bottle, not Small Batch Select.

Single Barrel OESO and OBSF (2025 releases)

Four Roses added more single-barrel recipes to its Single Barrel Collection. It lists OESO, OBSF and OESK as 2025 releases and OBSK, OESF and OESQ as 2026 releases, all 100 proof and 7 to 9 years old. (Source: Four Roses, Our Bourbons)

OESO shows ripe red fruit, honey and oak on the nose, with cherry and vanilla on the palate. (Source: Single Barrel OESO) OBSF leads with mint, apple, allspice and vanilla, then bright rye and brown sugar. (Source: Single Barrel OBSF)

North Carolina's November list prices OBSK, OESF and OESQ at $47.95, the same as OBSV. We found no current state-store listing for OESO or OBSF, so we don't quote a retail price for them.

Barrel strength private selection

Private selection bottles are single barrels picked by a retailer or group and sold at barrel strength. North Carolina lists "Four Roses SB Barrel Strength Private" at $99.95, with 112 proof and 10 years on the list. A separate NCABC-labeled pick is priced the same. (Source: NC ABC, November 2026 price list)

The Collective tracks store picks from many of the ten recipes, and resale values differ by recipe. On The Collective, OBSV and OESO store picks (as listed, Tier 3) averaged $108 and $106 as of August 2026. (Source: The Collective, OESO store pick) Treat those as estimates, not quotes.

Small Batch Select (not a single barrel)

People searching for "Four Roses Select" often mean Small Batch Select. It's a non-chill-filtered blend of six recipes (OBSV, OBSK, OBSF, OESV, OESK and OESF), aged 6 to 7 years and bottled at 104 proof, in 750 ml, 375 ml and 50 ml. (Source: Four Roses Small Batch Select) It's $54.95 in North Carolina and $54.99 in Virginia.

Limited Edition Small Batch 2026

The 19th annual Limited Edition Small Batch arrived on Oct. 10, 2026. It blends a 14-year OBSK, a 14-year OESK, a 15-year OESV and a 23-year OESK at 109.2 proof. Four Roses says about 16,800 bottles were released at a suggested retail price of $249. (Source: Four Roses press release, Sept 1, 2026)

For context, The Collective's August 2026 averages were $215 for the 2025 edition and $249 for 2024. Four Roses also states its limited editions are non-chill filtered. (Source: Four Roses Limited Edition) We found no 2026 Limited Edition Single Barrel release on the producer's site, so none is priced here.

Is Four Roses Single Barrel worth the price?

At under $50 for a 100-proof single barrel aged 7 to 9 years, it costs less than the barrel-strength picks and Limited Editions in the same family. Compare it with Eagle Rare and Blanton's using our price guides.

For collectors, the core bottle is a drinker, not an investment: The Collective's thin OBSF data (four trades, $35) sits below retail. Store picks are where resale runs above the shelf: $106 to $108 on The Collective versus $99.95 at NC ABC.

Where can you buy Four Roses Single Barrel at the best price?

State stores are the cleanest benchmark. North Carolina's ABC boards and Virginia ABC stores carry the core bottle at the prices above.

The producer's site has a "Where to Buy" locator. (Source: Four Roses Bourbon) For the Limited Edition and Salt River bottles, the Lawrenceburg, Kentucky visitor center sells releases directly while supplies last. (Source: Four Roses, Sept 9, 2026)
