The lightest and most approachable expression in the Blanton’s collection. Recognized by its distinctive green label, Special Reserve offers a smooth, elegant profile of soft vanilla, toffee, dried fruit and gentle spice.
Blanton’s Special Reserve presents the signature single barrel character of Blanton’s in a softer and more delicate style. Bottled at 80 proof, it is particularly suited to those discovering premium bourbon while retaining sufficient complexity for the experienced whiskey drinker.
Each bottle is filled from an individually selected barrel matured in Warehouse H, meaning subtle variations in aroma, flavour and texture naturally occur from one bottling to another.
Every bottle displays handwritten information identifying its barrel number, dump date and warehouse location. The distinctive green label and iconic horse-and-jockey stopper make Special Reserve an essential addition to a complete Blanton’s collection.
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 maximum aromatic freshness.
Serve neat, over a single large ice cube or in an elegant bourbon-based cocktail. Its lighter character also makes it an excellent introduction to a comparative Blanton’s tasting.
Pair with glazed ham, roast pork, barbecue chicken, mild Cheddar, dried fruit, roasted almonds, apple tart, vanilla desserts or milk chocolate.
