Blanton's The Original
Whisky Blanton's The Original is an excellent product, distilled in Kentucky, USA, where corn, rye and barley malt grow particularly rich and full of flavour. Produced since 1881, over time it has been able to maintain its strong personality, thanks also to the traditional recipe that is handed down from generation to generation. From the very first moment, the palate senses the spicy notes and the presence of the dried rind of the cedar, which together gives a spicy alternation of sensations.
About the whisky...
The world’s first single barrel bourbon was created in 1984 by Elmer T. Lee. Named after former distillery president Colonel Albert B. Blanton. Elmer recalled how Colonel Blanton would sometimes handpick a ‘honey barrel’ from the center of Warehouse H to enjoy with others. Many years later, the Blanton’s brand was created. Today, Blanton’s Single Barrel has become one of the most revered and award-winning bourbons on the market. The Gold Edition was the second version created, after the Original 93 proof.
