Item Description
From the Company's website: "The benchmark when it comes to premium, single-barrel bourbon, Blanton's Original Private Reserve Single Barrel Bourbon is strictly for collectors and connoisseurs. Mature and complex, the 'Original' boasts a unique balance of intensity and bold flavor thanks to Blanton's selective, handpicked process. Though not as rare as it once was, having been reserved for dignitaries and VIPs for almost 50 years before becoming available to the public, the Original Single Barrel remains an elusive, highly sought-after spirit. Each bottle label lists the specific date the distillate within was dumped as well as the barrel number, warehouse, and rick number. Exceptionally refined and beautifully crafted, this masterful NAS bourbon is characterized by a smooth, languid, and luxurious profile that lives up to its reputation as the cult single-barrel bourbon whiskey."
Blanton's Single Barrel Bourbon is a "super-premium" bourbon, considered one of the finest bourbons made. Blanton's Single Barrel is not easy to get your hands on. The company explains, "Despite an increase in distillation over the past few years, demand for Blanton’s is outpacing supply. We are making more bourbon every day. While we wait, there may be times when bottles of Blanton’s Single Barrel are missing from store shelves. We kindly ask our fans to remember, aging good bourbon takes time, and we’re doing our best to keep up. Due to existing law, we cannot sell Blanton’s directly to consumers."
“The horse and jockey atop the bottle stoppers are now a recognized trademark of Blanton's Single Barrel Bourbon. The rich heritage and tradition of horses in Kentucky parallel that of bourbon. This is our way of paying homage to this Kentucky heritage. Beginning in 1999 a collector's set of eight different stoppers was produced. The set features a horse and jockey in different strides and poses resembling the stages of a horse race, from beginning to end. Each stopper is marked with a single letter that spells Blanton's when the set has been completed. The final stopper, marked by “S” always finishes the race in victory!”
