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, painstaking way to produce bourbon. For a bourbon's peak maturity varies 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-marked information you see here. And that is why Blanton's is to bourbon what the finest single malts are to scotch and rarest cognacs are to brandy. A sour mash whiskey of body, bouquet and character unequaled by any other. Blanton's is available in limited quantities at select stores.

Soft stone fruits, elegant floral notes and velvety moss-like elements. Deeply characterful and broad in style with spikey heat intensity and a lingering finish.
Silver Outstanding2017iwsc.net ↗
Rye spices; the best Ruben sandwich you’ve ever had. … On the palate the rye notes poke through with cherry, more pickle juice, American yellow mustard and some leather notes as well.

Oak and leather immediately hit your nose. Toasted coconut on the palate. Finishes with sweet cinnamon candy.

Flavor scores are our estimates. A flavor scores higher when more critics mention it and when they describe it more strongly, so no single review sets the result. They are not a rating from any publication.
