Blanton’s Straight From The Barrel Bourbon Whiskey 750ml
Blanton’s is the original single barrel bourbon — the expression that launched an entire category and forever changed the way the world thinks about American whiskey. First introduced in 1984 at Buffalo Trace Distillery (then known as the George T. Stagg Distillery), Blanton’s pioneered the concept of bottling bourbon from a single, hand-selected barrel, ensuring that every bottle is a unique, unrepeatable expression of one specific barrel’s character.
Straight From The Barrel is the most coveted and powerful expression in the Blanton’s lineup — bottled at full cask strength, uncut and unfiltered, directly from the barrel. This is Blanton’s in its most raw, honest, and extraordinary form, a whiskey of exceptional intensity and complexity that is highly sought after by collectors and connoisseurs worldwide.
