Tasting notes:
Amber with golden highlights, the nose is subtly oaky, marked by dried fruit, with hints of spices (cinnamon) and heady flowers (honeysuckle).
The palate is lively, elegant and refined, developing notes of fruit (plum) and spices (clove).
The long finish develops notes of vanilla, pecan and burnt wood.
Food pairings:
Serve Blanton’s Gold Edition slightly chilled, accompanied by a grilled rib of beef or mature Comté cheese, to enhance its notes of vanilla,
caramel and woody spices in a sumptuous and refined pairing.
Presentation:
The world’s finest bourbon comes from a single cask.
And it is never blended with whisky from any other cask.
This is how Colonel Albert B. Blanton bottled his private reserve bourbon nearly a century ago.
And this is how Blanton is bottled today.
It is a costly and labour-intensive way to produce bourbon.
The optimal maturity of the bourbon varies from barrel to barrel.
And only a master distiller can determine the exact moment when the whisky has drawn enough flavour from the wood.
So he closely monitors each barrel until it is aged to perfection and deemed worthy of the Blanton label.
That is why the bottle bears no age statement.
Just the hand-stamped details you can see.
And that is why Blanton’s is to bourbon what the finest single malts are to Scotch and the rarest cognacs are to brandy.
A tangy whisky with a body, bouquet and character unrivalled by any other.
This bourbon stands out for its unusually shaped bottle and its cap adorned with a thoroughbred, Kentucky’s second emblem after bourbon.
The Gold Edition of Blanton’s is the finest expression of this great single barrel, crafted at the Buffalo Trace distillery.

Located in Frankfort, an hour east of Louisville( Kentucky's capital), the Buffalo Trace Distillery is said to have been built near a ford crossing the Kentucky River, which extended a track once used by many herds of bison. Originally known as Old Fire Copper (O.F.C.) and renamed George T. Stagg in 1900, it was led by a certain Colonel Blanton between 1921 and 1953.
During Prohibition, it was one of four distilleries in the United States authorized to produce whiskey for medicinal purposes. Renamed Ancient Age in 1969, it has been named Buffalo Trace since 1999 and is displayed in large on a water tower worthy of the best westerns.
A pioneer in more ways than one, she was the first in 1984 to release a single barrel bourbon, Blanton's. It is also the only Kentucky distillery to produce five different whiskey styles: two from rye, one from barley, one from wheat and one from 100% rye. Thus, it has the widest range and the largest stock of old American whiskeys.
A specialist in maturation, the distillery has more than 1500 experimental barrels that allow it to study different types of aging. Finally Buffalo Trace, which is no longer an innovation, also produces the only vodka from organic corn, called Rain Vodka.
It is therefore quite logical that it was voted the best distillery of 2005 by both Whisky Magazine and the American magazine Malt Advocate.
