Blanton's Honey Barrel 2021 Special Release Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey is a stellar addition to any home bar, sure to be enjoyed by both spirits enthusiasts and novices alike. This exceptional Bourbon is produced in the United States by Blanton's and bottled at barrel-proof, offering a robust and well-rounded drinking experience.

The Blanton's Honey Barrel Special Release is an embodiment of the legacy of Albert Bacon Blanton, a man who devoted his life to the art of crafting Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey. Blanton's Honey Barrel Special Release is a tribute to his vision, where he would personally select individual barrels from a specific section of Warehouse H, which he believed was optimal for aging bourbon, to bottle for his private reserve.

The Honey Barrel 2021 Special Release truly stands out with its impressive bouquet of aromas and flavors. It opens with the scents of vanilla and caramel, followed by a hint of cinnamon spice and a subtle undertone of honeycomb. The tasting journey culminates in a well-rounded finish dominated by vanilla notes. This bourbon is not only a testament to the rich tradition of bourbon-making but also a collectible single barrel bourbon set to make history¹.

About Blanton’s Bourbon

In the winter of 1881, Albert Bacon Blanton was born on a farm situated just outside of Frankfort, Kentucky. At the age of 16, Blanton began working at the Old Fire Copper Distillery (often abbreviated O.F.C. Distillery) as an office boy. Over the next few years, Blanton reportedly worked in every department at the distillery. By the age of 20, he was appointed the superintendent of O.F.C, and worked there until his retirement in 1952.

Much like his mentor, E.H. Taylor, Blanton was a traditional bourbon aristocrat, wedded to the production of Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey. Blanton identified a certain section of Warehouse H at his distillery, which he believed was the best for aging bourbon, and would personally select individual barrels from the section to bottle for his own private reserve.

Today, Blanton's Original Single Barrel Bourbon Whiskey is still aged in the same section of Warehouse H as Blanton's Private Reserve was over 50 years ago. Made from the high-rye Buffalo Trace mash bill of corn, rye, and malted barley.

Blanton’s is a bourbon whiskey which is produced and marketed by the Sazerac Company. It is distilled in Frankfort, Kentucky at the Buffalo Trace Distillery.

The Blanton’s brand was launched in 1984 under the guidance of the distillery’s master distiller Elmer T. Lee, as the first modern bourbon marketed as a single barrel bourbon. The original brand name was “Blanton’s Single Barrel Bourbon.” The barrels are dumped by hand without using machinery. There are eight different stopper designs, each with a different letter of the alphabet molded into it and topped with a figurine of a racehorse and jockey. When placed in order, spelling “B L A N T O N’ S”, the horse and jockey’s poses display eight different scenes of a horse race, from standing at the gate, to crossing the finish line with a win.
