Product Description

The finest bourbon in the world comes from a single barrel. And it is never blended with whiskey from any other barrel. That is the way Colonel Albert B. Blanton first bottled his private reserve bourbon nearly a century ago. And that is the way Blanton's is bottled today. It is a costly, painstakingly way to produce bourbon. For a bourbon's peak maturity varies from barrel to barrel. And only a master distiller can determine the exact moment the whiskey has extracted enough flavor from the wood. Thus he vigilantly monitors each barrel until it is aged to perfection and is deemed worthy of the Blanton label. That is why our bottle carries no age statement. Just the hand-makred information you see. And that is why Blanton's it to bourbon what the finest single malts are ti scotch and rarest cognacs are to brandy. A sour mash whiskey of a body, bouquet and character unequaled by any other. Blanton's is available in limited quantities at select stores.

The aroma is solid, leading to a palate graced with milk chocolate, toffee, and marshmallow flavours, embodying the typical excellence of a great bourbon. The whiskey offers a light sweet finish with a hint of baking spices.
The nose features estery notes in the form of ripe tropical fruit as well as brioche, fall spices, roasted nuts and pie crust. … A long and drying finish, but opens up with the addition of water.
