Redstone Exclusive: Blanton’s Single Barrel Bourbon

blantonsbourbon

We are happy to announce the arrival of our hand selected barrel of Blanton’s bourbon. During our trip to KY we were given the opportunity to go through various samples from different barrels and selected one in which we felt stood out from the pack. Bottles from this particular barrel were packaged in 375ML and 750ML bottles and will have our personalized crest outlining its exclusivity (750ml only, 375s were too too small to hold our crest). You will also find a mix of 8 different horse stoppers, when put next to each other will replicate the start to finish of the horses position during a horse race. each stopper will also adorn a letter to spell out “blantons” when you own a complete set. These will only be available for a limited time so swing by and secure your bottle today. We know you will like this as much as we do.

Taken from the center-cut or middle sections of the famous Warehouse H, Blanton’s Original was once designated for ambassadors, dignitaries, and Colonel Blanton’s family and friends. Today, you can have access to the world’s first single barrel bourbon. The taste profile is sweet with citrus and oak. A creamy vanilla nose features hints of nuts, caramel, orange and light chocolate. Blanton’s Original set the standard for single barrel bourbons. Best served neat or on the rocks. 46.5% alcohol by volume.
