About this whisky
Blantons - The Original Single Barrel is a premium bourbon whiskey produced by the Buffalo Trace Distillery in Kentucky, USA. The history of Blantons dates back to the late 1800s when Albert B. Blanton, the former president of the distillery, began experimenting with single barrel bourbons. He believed that each barrel had its own unique flavour profile, and that by bottling them individually, he could showcase the distinct characteristics of each barrel.
Blantons - The Original Single Barrel is made from a mash bill of corn, rye, and malted barley, and is aged for a minimum of 6 years in new, charred oak barrels. The whiskey is then bottled at 46.5% ABV, without any blending or filtering, to preserve its natural flavour and aroma.
Blantons - The Original Single Barrel has a rich, complex flavour profile, with notes of caramel, vanilla, and oak, as well as hints of spice and fruit. It has a smooth, velvety texture, and a long, satisfying finish. This whiskey is best enjoyed neat or on the rocks, to fully appreciate its unique character.
Blantons - The Original Single Barrel has won numerous awards and accolades over the years, including the Double Gold Medal at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition, and the Best Bourbon Whiskey award at the World Whiskies Awards. It is highly sought after by whiskey enthusiasts and collectors, and is considered one of the finest examples of single barrel bourbon whiskey in the world.
Overall, Blantons - The Original Single Barrel is a true masterpiece of bourbon whiskey production, and a testament to the skill and dedication of the Buffalo Trace Distillery. Its rich history, unique style of production, and exceptional quality make it a must-try for any whiskey lover.
