Experience the world’s finest single barrel bourbon in the comfort of your home with this unbelievable bourbon offering. Blanton’s Bourbon is exceptionally difficult to source in the current market, yet remains one of the most lauded bourbons in the world. Up for auction this evening is an incredible offering of three elite Blanton's bourbons that only come along once in Kentucky blue moon. This stunning auction item is worth in excess of $1600.

*Blanton’s Black Edition Bourbon*
Produced exclusively for the Japanese export market at 80 proof, Blanton’s Black Label is one of the rarest bourbon whiskeys in the world. An 8-year minimum aged barrel selection process produces an intensely complex, robust and refined whiskey tasting experience. The Black Label is a statement piece for any serious bourbon collector and a must-try for any keen Blanton’s enthusiast. Black was developed exclusively for the Japanese market and is not sold inside the United States.

*Blanton’s Gold Edition Bourbon*
Blanton’s Gold Edition was created for discerning bourbon aficionados who appreciate exceptional smoothness and complexity in their bourbon whiskey. The nose is first marked by spicy rye and tobacco notes. Caramel and honey follow soon after, mingled with dark fruit and citrus notes. The palate emulates the same complex nose with rye, tobacco, and honey at the forefront. Round and bold notes of charred oak and vanilla carry you through to an extremely long and harmonious finish. This bourbon consistently delivers on balance and character, on par with the world’s finest whiskey. Best served neat or with a splash of water. Bottled at 51.5% alcohol by volume.

*Blanton’s Red Edition Bourbon*
This exceptional offering is a variant of Blanton's Bourbon released specifically for the Japanese market. At eight years old, this bourbon offers a unique tasting with notes of maraschino cherries, vanilla, plum, orange peel, and mild oak. The exceptionally sophisticated palate is balanced with notes of leather, orange crush, black tea, red hots and tannic oak. Experience a long finish with notes of gumballs, cherries and mild hazelnut.
