Brent Elliott is the Master Distiller behind one of the most iconic bourbon brands in the world - Four Roses Bourbon. We got to chat about the dramatic journey that Four Roses has had since 1888(!), how they were one of the few distilleries in America to survive Prohibition, and how Seagrams nearly destroyed the brand in the 1950s. I also got a chance to taste the "Fourth Rose" in their lineup - Four Roses Small Batch Select.

This week's cocktail recipe is the Gold Rush:

Gold Rush 
2 oz Four Roses Small Batch Select
3/4 oz Honey Syrup
3/4 oz Lemon Juice
 
Shake all ingredients over ice until chilled. Strain into a rocks glass with ice. Lemon peel garnish is optional.
