About this deal

Whether or not there’s a real reason for the price hike is unknown, but some people prefer single-barrel because it has a more unique taste than blended bourbons, which are mixed for uniform taste. It might also be more exciting for you to drink these single-barrel bourbons, as you never quite know what to expect. What about the Super-Expensive Bourbons? Excerpt: This is one of those whiskies that you’ll find yourself continuing to sniff throughout the whole drinking experience. Blanton’s Gold is crafted from the same high-rye mash bill as the popular Blanton’s Original Single Barrel, but it is bottled at 103 proof rather than the standard 93 proof. Its currently only available outside the US, like many other bottles in the Blanton’s line. The entire Blanton’s family consists of single barrel bourbons, and includes other international releases like the cask strength Straight From the Barrel and the 80 proof Blanton’s Special Reserve Green Label. FRANKFORT, FRANKLIN COUNTY, KY (Feb 27, 2020) Fans of Blanton’s Single Barrel Bourbon have long asked for the Gold Edition to be available in the United States.

It works only in coordination with the primary cookie.

Excerpt: For only 5% higher alcohol, the results are surprising. This is far better than Blanton’s Original in almost every way. The distillery describes Blanton’s Gold as having a nose marked by honey, heavy rye, dried fruits, vanilla, and chocolate. The taste is described as full and rich, marked by apricot, butter, pepper, light honey, and oak. The finish has been called long, with toffee and apple, developing on pecan and caramel.

Introduced in 1984, Blanton’s namesake bourbon was the first ever Single Barrel Bourbon sold commercially. A superb single barrel bourbon. Blanton's Gold is distilled from a mashbill of corn, rye and malted barley. Each bottle is hand filled, sealed, labelled and individually numbered. The nose is powerful and dry with honey, rye, dried fruits, vanilla and chocolate. The palate is full and rich with honey and oak, pecan and caramel. This is a pretty consistent bourbon across the board when it comes to flavor profile. The nose, palate, and finish all are very pleasing and this bourbon delivers a great sip from start to finish. The Gold Edition is a slightly spunkier version of Blanton’s Original Single Barrel in the sense that it offers the same great nose, a little drier mouthfeel, and a little more burn in the finish.Excerpt: The finish is long, sweet, and creamy with notes of caramel syrup, cherries, and vanilla. Smooth, rich, and consistent…a classic!

That being said, it has a stronger taste of charred oak and a very pleasant caramel smell. Caramel, dark fruit, vanilla, wood, candied citrus, a spice that slowly builds to prominence and a bit of gourmet red licorice. You’ll notice that Blanton’s offers two bourbons which are significantly more expensive than their standard whiskey. Why is this?

Each stopper is marked with a single letter that spells Blanton’s when the set has been completed. The final stopper, marked by “S” always finishes the race in victory! Blanton’s Gold Edition is only sold to select non-U.S. markets. At 103 proof, Blanton’s Gold Edition comes in 10 proof points higher than Blanton’s Original Single Barrel that you can buy in the U.S., which is sold at 93 proof. If you enjoy Blanton’s Original Single Barrel, this is one of two opportunities to try a higher proofed version from the distillery, the other being Blanton’s Straight from the Barrel. It’s one of the few products on the market that allows you to do a side by side comparison of a brand at multiple proof points. I wish more products would do this as it allows consumers to buy the version that’s best suited for their preferred proof range.

Hi there, I am James Hart, an ex food and liquor photographer, who has a keen passion for different kinds of wines and liquors. Blanton’s Gold Edition was created for discerning connoisseurs who appreciate exceptional smoothness and clean finish in their bourbon whiskey. The rich taste of dark fudge, citrus, oak and cream combined with the spiciness of white pepper and rye lead to a long finish that challenges the world’s finest single malts and rarest cognacs in complexity and character. Best served neat or with a splash of water. Bottled at 51.5% alcohol by volume.” Blanton’s Gold is one of Blanton’s (Buffalo Trace) international single barrel offerings. Aside from the regular Blanton’s Bourbon available here in the USA there’s three other international offerings available in the global market. This, the Blanton’s Gold Edition, a green label Special Reserve (40%) and a Straight from the Barrel which is un-cut and minimally filtered.

Excerpt: Not too bad - I like this better than the OG Blanton's and about the same as some of their Straight From The Barrel expressions.

Caramel, dark fruit, orchard fruit, oak, vanilla, that same spice that starts low and builds (cinnamon-bergamot hybrid), molasses and a slight touch of an herbal character. In the winter of 1881, Albert Bacon Blanton was born into one of the first families of bourbon history. At the age of sixteen, he started work in the Distillery as an office boy and fast became a leading pioneer in the development of bourbon. We deliver to a number of international destinations including the USA. Please use the 'Change Location' link above for an estimate in your local currency or find out more about international delivery This is the first time the Blanton’s Gold Edition has been made available in the U.S. Previously the only version of the Blanton’s Single Barrel Bourbon available to fans stateside was the Original Single Barrel, bottled at 93 proof. While Blanton’s Original will still be available, the Gold Edition is now joining the ranks.The founder of Blantons, master distiller Elmer T. Lee introduced the world to the first "super premium" whiskey and in doing so, revolutionised the entire bourbon industry. It can't be overstated just what a radical move this was - it completely changed peoples expectations and ideas about what bourbon was. Today, super-premium bourbon features on pretty much every bourbon distillers portfolio but Blantons was the first.
