Overpriced
Average scores at an above-average price. Hard to justify unless you want this specific bottle. 3.5/5 on Breaking Bourbon against a category median of 3/5, across 303 rated; 7.3/10 on The Bourbon Culture against a category median of 7.8/10, across 508 rated. Thin data, two sources.
Blanton's Single Barrel Bourbon is a Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey produced by Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky. Introduced in 1984 as the original modern single-barrel bourbon, each bottle comes from one individual barrel (not blended), bottled at 93 proof (46.5% ABV), and is known for notes of citrus, oak, vanilla, and baking spice, along with its distinctive horse-and-jockey stopper.
