Blanton's Gold Edition Bourbon Whiskey (750Ml)

What your eyes are feasting on is a Limited 103-Proof Second Blanton’s Release. Blanton's Gold Edition Bourbon Whiskey is a rare one, an advanced sip for the more serious sippers. Buffalo Trace is the distillery for this, and they use their Mash Bill #2 (the distillery’s rye‑forward mash). That and the high proof make this intense with more pronounced rye spice, tobacco, and dark fruit notes.

Let’s talk aroma and tasting profile. A good sniff will give you spicy rye and tobacco first, then caramel, honey, dark fruit, and citrus highlights. The palate delivers rich caramel and honeyed sweetness, giving way to that rye spice again. Oak tannin and a touch of dark chocolate or tobacco leaf linger as well, finishing dry with a touch of spice. 

A limited release with accolades? With Blanton’s, it is rightfully possible. This bottle is a Silver Medal awardee of the World Whiskies Awards 2024. The review proudly states "The aroma is solid, leading to a palate graced with milk chocolate, toffee, and marshmallow flavours, embodying the typical excellence of a great bourbon. The whiskey offers a light sweet finish with a hint of baking spices."

Choose Blanton's Gold Edition Bourbon Whiskey if you want a more serious drink. That and because it’s one of the more rare bourbons worthy of your time.
