An exceptionally rare commemorative single barrel bourbon created to celebrate 40 years since Blanton’s established the modern single barrel category in 1984. Bottled at a powerful 124 proof, this collector’s release combines remarkable depth and intensity with impressive refinement.
Released in 2024 to commemorate the 40th anniversary of Blanton’s Original Single Barrel Bourbon, this exceptional bottling pays tribute to the bourbon that revolutionized the premium whiskey category.
Drawn from carefully selected stock matured in the legendary metal-clad Warehouse H, it is presented with a distinctive white commemorative label and collectible white horse-and-jockey stopper. Its combination of historic significance, limited availability and barrel-strength intensity makes it one of the most desirable modern Blanton’s releases.
The anniversary edition was bottled on November 4, 2024, exactly 40 years after the original Blanton’s release. As a single barrel bourbon, individual bottles may exhibit subtle variations reflecting the unique character of their particular barrel.
Ready to enjoy immediately and capable of keeping almost indefinitely when stored upright, tightly sealed and protected from heat and direct sunlight. Once opened, it is best enjoyed within two to three years for optimal aromatic intensity.
Serve neat in a wide-bowled whiskey glass and allow it to rest for several minutes. A few drops of water will soften the alcohol and reveal additional layers of fruit, caramel and spice.
Pair with dry-aged steak, smoked brisket, barbecue short ribs, mature Cheddar, roasted pecans, dark chocolate, sticky toffee pudding or pecan pie. It is equally suited to slow, contemplative enjoyment on its own.
