Blanton's is a Kentucky straight bourbon produced at Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky. Launched in 1984 under master distiller Elmer T. Lee, it is widely recognised as the bourbon that helped establish the modern single barrel category, drawing on the legacy of Colonel Albert B. Blanton, a former distillery president known for selecting premium casks from the warehouse.
The whiskey is crafted from Buffalo Trace's higher-rye bourbon mash bill and aged in Warehouse H, a metal-clad rickhouse linked to Blanton's distinctive style. Each bottling comes from an individual barrel rather than blended across multiple casks, so minor variations in character form part of its appeal.
Blanton's Original Single Barrel remains the core expression, with Gold, Straight From the Barrel and other variants offered in selected markets. The profile is typically well-rounded and refined, displaying caramel, vanilla, orange peel, baking spice and toasted oak, with adequate structure to satisfy bourbon enthusiasts and sufficient smoothness to account for its wide appeal.
