An Icon of Single Barrel Bourbon Excellence - Blanton’s Original Single Barrel Bourbon Whiskey
Blanton’s Original Single Barrel Bourbon Whiskey stands as a landmark expression in American whiskey, widely recognized as the world’s first commercially released single barrel bourbon. Crafted to showcase the individuality of each barrel, Blanton’s delivers a refined yet powerful profile that reflects careful selection, extended maturation, and uncompromising attention to detail. Every bottle represents a unique snapshot of bourbon at its peak.
Tasting Experience
Appearance: Deep amber with copper highlights and rich viscosity.
Nose: Inviting aromas of caramel, vanilla, orange peel, and honey layered with soft oak and baking spice.
Palate: Full and structured with flavors of sweet toffee, brown sugar, citrus zest, cinnamon, and subtle nutmeg balanced by seasoned oak.
Finish: Long, warm, and elegant with lingering spice, light pepper, and a gentle sweetness that fades gracefully.
Craftsmanship
Blanton’s is produced at Buffalo Trace Distillery using a high rye mash bill and aged in Warehouse H, the only metal clad rickhouse at the distillery. Each barrel is hand selected and bottled individually, resulting in natural variations that highlight the influence of barrel position, climate, and time. Bottled at 93 proof, it preserves depth and complexity while remaining remarkably smooth.
Best Enjoyed
Best savored neat or with a few drops of water to open its layered aromas. It also elevates classic bourbon cocktails, though its depth and individuality shine brightest when enjoyed on its own.
A benchmark single barrel bourbon with timeless appeal, delivering distinction, character, and collectible prestige on Royal Batch.
