Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey
Distillery: Buffalo Trace
Release: Limited Anniversary Edition
Style: Elegant, mature, and highly collectible
Style Overview:
Released to commemorate 40 years of Blanton’s Single Barrel, this anniversary bottling showcases the house style at its most polished — refined, balanced, and deeply expressive, while remaining unmistakably Blanton’s.
Appearance:
Deep amber with rich golden highlights.
Nose:
Warm and inviting with classic Blanton’s aromatics: caramel, vanilla bean, honey, and orange peel, layered with baking spices, toasted oak, and hints of dried apple, leather, and sweet tobacco. Elegant rather than overpowering.
Palate:
Smooth, rounded, and beautifully integrated. Flavours of butterscotch, toffee, brown sugar, and ripe stone fruit unfold seamlessly, supported by notes of cinnamon, nutmeg, and charred oak. The mouthfeel is silky, with excellent balance between sweetness, spice, and wood.
Finish:
Long, warm, and refined, with lingering notes of vanilla, spice, seasoned oak, and a gentle sweetness that fades gracefully.
