This Blanton's Single Barrel bottle is number: 177 and was dumped on 3-10-08
A highly sought after bourbon Blanton's was the world’s first commercially sold single barrel bourbon, introduced in 1984. Created at Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky, and owned by the Sazerac Company, Blanton’s was originally developed by Elmer T. Lee to honour Colonel Albert B. Blanton's legacy of hand-selecting the finest barrels for special guests.
Each bottle of Blanton's (AVB 46%) is drawn from a single, specially chosen barrel, ensuring unique flavour nuances with every batch. A high-rye mash bill gives it a bold, spicy backbone, balanced beautifully with notes of honey, vanilla, caramel, dried fruits, and warm oak. The texture is rich and creamy, leading to a long, slightly peppery finish.
What makes Blanton's so good is its balance of complexity and approachability. Every barrel offers a slightly different profile, yet each maintains the signature elegance and depth that bourbon lovers around the world treasure. With its distinctive bottle design, collectible horse stoppers, and consistently high quality, Blanton’s Single Barrel has earned countless awards and a cult following. It remains one of the finest examples of what true Kentucky bourbon can be — authentic, handcrafted, and unforgettable.

- Gold Medal – San Francisco World Spirits Competition
- Best Single Barrel Bourbon – Whisky Advocate Awards
- Gold Medal – International Wine & Spirit Competition (IWSC)
