Blanton's Single Barrel Bourbon
I just picked up some Blanton's Single Barrel Bourbon.
I've never had it. I hear it's really, really good. Anyone have it? What am I in for? |

Re: Blanton's Single Barrel Bourbon
I've had samples from quite a few bottles and my opinions varied. One was the best bourbon I've had yet - another was just plum ordinary. This is the variety of single-cask bottlings but there seems to be significant variation in this brand to my palate...

It's good, but different...overall I was happy to have bought one bottle but I wouldn't buy it again.
It didn't blow my mind that is for sure.

I like me some Blanton's. Next time you go to the store, see how many different stoppers they have. I think there are 6 or 8 different jockey/horse poses available.

Re: Blanton's Single Barrel Bourbon
One of my favorites for sipping. I take it neat with just a couple drops of water to open it up. It's pretty dry and spicy while staying fairly mild with little burn.

Re: Blanton's Single Barrel Bourbon
the stoppers each have a letter on them, you can get a piece of barrel drilled from them to put the stoppers in to spell....what else...blantons.
Some bottles i have had have been great, some have been just ok. The price you pay for single barrel bourbon. Now if only i could try some of their other stuff only sold on the international market.

Re: Blanton's Single Barrel Bourbon
Looking on the BevMo site out this way reveals no Single Barrel on their site, but they do have Blanton's Bourbon in the 750 ml for $45.99. The Single Barrel sounds interesting...

Re: Blanton's Single Barrel Bourbon
I enjoy it. It has more spice/less sweetness then say Buffalo Trace, my day to day favorite or Basil Haydens, very mild, but on a cool night with a good smoke its one of my top 5.
