These are two Kentucky straight bourbons at different proofs. The US Bulleit Bourbon page prints 45% Alc/Vol (90 proof). Four Roses Bourbon is sold at 80 proof and 100 proof on fourrosesbourbon.com. Small Batch prints 90 proof. Single Barrel OBSV prints 100 proof. A 1.5-ounce pour is 1.13 drinks at 45% and 1.00 at 40%. This is not a 2022 winner.
