According to their website Four Roses Yellow label is now being offered in 1.75 l bottles. I'm heading down to KY this weekend to do some shopping to get, among other things, family sized bottles of some of my favorites. How common is this size of 4R? And how much are they going for?

Re: Four Roses Handles
Just a guess from what I have paid for 750ml bottles of 4RYL in the past,
I'd say less than 30 bucks American,
probably closer to 28 bucks,
um yes,
that would be American also.God gave me wisdom but the Devil gave me style

Re: Four Roses Handles
I haven't seen one, either, but I haven't been in a liquor store in several weeks.
I know, I know, but it's not as if I am in danger of running out of bourbon.

Re: Four Roses Handles
Found them at the Liquor Barn in Lexington (Harrodsburg) -- they were 35.xx today (before the tax increase on 4/1). They just got them in a few days ago.

Re: Four Roses Handles
Glad we have a sighting, when do we get a picture? This is momentous for our community. We need documentation.
Thing is, if you had told me even four years ago that by 2009, Four Roses would be a jug bourbon, I wouldn't have believed you. This shows that you can build an American whiskey brand from virtually nothing into a brand that people will buy by the jug without the expertise and muscle of a major spirits company behind you.
Not to underrate Kirin, which is a big company, but it's not a big player in the United States distilled spirits category.Col. Charles K. "Crotchety" Cowdery

Re: Four Roses Handles
Sorry got a bit behind it keeping up with threads (did not slow down my consumption--don't think there is any correlation).
