Blanton's Single Barrel

From the moment Blanton's touches your lips, you know you're drinking something special. A smooth and mellow drink that will add a touch of class to the best of occasions. This is a Bourbon that I am truly in love with. As you pull the glass to your nose you are pleased with the aroma of caramel and vanilla. The first taste will give you flavors of caramel, citrus, and some light oak. As you finish you're left with an aftertaste of sugar and vanilla. It is best to serve this 93 proof (46.5% alc/vol) Bourbon straight. You wouldn't want to dilute it any at all. For a pure pleasure, pick up a bottle and enjoy.
