Blanton's - Bourbon Whiskey

Blanton's is a brand of bourbon whiskey produced and marketed by the Sazerac Company. Although she doesn't own the brand, she does have the exclusive burning rights. Owned by Age International, Inc. It is distilled in Frankfort, Kentucky at the Buffalo Trace Distillery.

The Blanton's brand was introduced in 1984 under the direction of the distillery's master distiller, Elmer T. Lee, as the first modern bourbon brand to be marketed as a single cask bourbon. The original brand name was "Blanton's Single Barrel Bourbon".

There are eight different plug designs, each molded with a different letter of the alphabet and crowned by a figure of a racehorse and jockey. In "BLANTON' S" order, the poses of the horse and jockey depict eight different scenes of a horse race, from standing at the gate to crossing the finish line in victory.

Blanton's Single Barrel Bourbon is typically aged for 6 to 8 years. It is aged in Buffalo Trace's Warehouse H, Buffalo Trace's only metal clad warehouse. Because the warehouse is metal, it transfers heat faster than brick warehouses, allowing for faster maturation.
