- Description
- Blanton's Original was the first single-barrel bourbon when introduced in 1984, and it remains a benchmark American whiskey matured in new American white oak. The nose carries ripe fruit, citrus, and spice, leading to a full-bodied palate where vanilla, chocolate, toffee, and warming spice notes build through a long finish. Essential drinking for bourbon enthusiasts and those discovering why single-barrel expression matters.
