Blantons Gold Bourbon Whiskey｜ Other Products

Blanton's launched in 1984 as the world's first commercially available single barrel bourbon, a genuine milestone that helped create the modern premium bourbon category as we know it. Gold Edition takes that same Buffalo Trace single barrel bourbon, aged in Warehouse H like every other Blanton's release, and bottles it at a notably higher 51.5% ABV (103 proof) — a real step up from the standard Original Single Barrel's 93 proof, historically sold mainly overseas and in duty-free before eventually making its way to US shelves. Reviewers consistently rank it among the best in the entire Blanton's lineup, with Breaking Bourbon explicitly saying they prefer it to the Original. Expect a rich, complex nose of vanilla, honey, caramel, dark fruit, and light pipe tobacco, moving into a full-bodied palate of raisin, dried fruit, citrus, cinnamon, and toffee, with a drier, slightly more assertive finish than the standard release. A few reviewers note the extra proof doesn't translate into quite as much heat or intensity as expected, and one recent review found a slightly youthful edge that left them wanting even more age. Still, most consider it one of the more rewarding pours in the whole Blanton's family.
