Blanton's Original Single Barrel Whiskey
About the Spirit
Blanton’s Original Single Barrel Bourbon holds a distinguished place in whiskey history as the first-ever single barrel bourbon, introduced in 1984. Distilled and bottled at the iconic Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky, this bourbon is a product of both tradition and innovation. The Albert B. Blanton Bottling Hall, named after the bourbon’s namesake, forms part of the distillery's rich heritage and makes this spirit a must-see centerpiece on tours. One of Blanton's most unique factors is its meticulous single-barrel production process. Each bottle originates from a single barrel stored in the historic Warehouse H, an iron-clad structure that plays a critical role in influencing the bourbon’s flavor. The warehouse allows for unique temperature fluctuations, imparting distinct characteristics to every barrel. This process ensures no two bottles are exactly alike, adding an element of individuality that appeals to whiskey enthusiasts worldwide. Blanton's reputation extends beyond its exceptional craftsmanship. Its collectible bottle design, complete with the iconic horse-and-jockey stopper, reflects its strong ties to Kentucky’s equestrian culture. Combining rarity, history, and artistry, it’s no surprise Blanton’s has become a coveted choice.
