Blanton's Single Barrel
Taken from the center-cut or middle sections of the famous Warehouse H, Blanton's Original Single Barrel was once designated for ambassadors, dignitaries, and Colonel Blanton's family and friends. Today, everyone has access to the world's first single barrel bourbon. The taste profile is sweet, with notes of citrus and oak. The creamy vanilla nose is teased with caramel and butterscotch, all underscored by familiar baking spices such as clove, nutmeg, or cinnamon. Blanton's Original set the standard for single barrel bourbons in 1984. Best served neat or on the rocks. Bottled at 46.5% alcohol by volume.

Note: A very small quantity of whiskies came from this single barrel, so taste variability is higher than with larger production whiskies. Many times this is not a big deal (i.e. Blanton's), but sometimes it matters (i.e. Larceny Barrel Proof versions). If the specific barrel is not listed, ask your server or a store employee for more info.
Nose: A deep, satisfying nose of apple, nutmeg and spices, with hints of vanilla and caramel.
Palate: Sweet, with powerful dry vanilla notes in harmony with hints of honey amid strong caramel and corn.
Finish: A medium finish composed of returning corn and nutmeg flavors.
