Clueby Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 I remember a post that said that they were asked not to call Four Rose's "Yellow Label" anymore but searched and couldn't find it. I saw this liter bottle today next to a 750 and didn't realize there was a change. I guess that's coming to the 750s as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0895 Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 yes. 750 also changed to cork instead of screw. I think someone on here nicknamed the new bottles “mellow label “ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clueby Posted July 25, 2018 Author Share Posted July 25, 2018 I like the yellow better. Now it just looks like a faded bottle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bacon is to wrap cream cheese stuffed jalapenos. They're a hit at cookouts! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishnbowljoe Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 It isn’t yellow label, or brown label, it’s just plain Four Roses now. Biba! Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, if I'm drinking it neat, I almost prefer it a little warm. Guess I'm odd that way, but I do like blueberries and bacon. Good combo...

[ED-pic of 4R bottle in cart deleted.] I did this with my OGD BIB orange screw caps when OGD BIB switched to fake cork. I now refill the orange screwtop as needed. WHY decant? Opening makes less noise when I lift it out of the trash can near my TV chair and open and pour. Plus, the orange cap is easier to find if I drop it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great minds Harry, mine happens to be one that looks to have sat in a store window for most of it's life. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ima callin’ it yella label...And, if Brent Elliott scolds me for it I’ll say, Listen Ginger, it’s Yella until you start putting out better whiskey. Ironically, this $16 and 80 proof yella label is the best thing you got going right now. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arguably, the new color is close to Winsor&Newton's acrylic Titanium Buff or Liquitex's Heavy Body Unbleached Titanium. This is approximated by the color of unbleached linen which, in the fashion industry, is called ecru. Hence, I shall follow Joe's lead - it shall be called yella label by me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbroo5880i Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Surely, you won't call it yellow label if pressured by the man in charge. You bet I will and don't call me Shirley! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulO Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 My lost post - The other day I was in a Meijer store. Tag on shelf read "Four Roses Yellow Label". Shelf had bottles with the new label. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
