Blanton's is a bourbon distillery based in Kentucky, producing single barrel bourbon whiskey. The brand is produced at the Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky, one of the oldest continuously operating distilleries in the United States.

Blanton's is known for its single barrel releases, which means each bottle comes from an individual barrel rather than a blend of multiple barrels. This approach highlights the variation and character that develops during maturation in charred oak casks. Kentucky bourbon is defined by its production in the state, use of a mash bill containing at least 51% corn, and aging in new charred oak barrels—conditions that contribute the whiskey's typical caramel color and vanilla, oak, and corn-forward flavor profile.

The Original Single Barrel is Blanton's flagship expression, bottled at barrel proof and released in limited quantities. Single barrel bourbon enthusiasts value these releases for their individuality; tasting notes and proof vary from barrel to barrel, making each bottle a distinct product rather than a standardized expression.
