Blanton's Collection

Blanton's is the world's first commercially bottled single barrel bourbon, introduced in 1984 by Elmer T. Lee at what is now Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky. Every bottle is drawn from a single barrel of Buffalo Trace Mash Bill #2, aged in Warehouse H, the distillery's only metal-clad warehouse.

Whether you’re collecting, gifting, or enjoying a pour yourself, Blanton’s delivers unmatched character—smooth vanilla, warm spice, and rich oak layered with complexity. With its iconic horse-and-jockey stopper and wax seal, each bottle is as collectible as it is unforgettable.
