Blantons Gold Edition 700ml

Blanton's Gold Edition is a higher-proof expression of Blanton's single-barrel bourbon, bottled primarily for travel retail and export markets like Japan and Europe rather than sold as a core U.S. release. Like every Blanton's bottling, it's drawn from a single barrel at Buffalo Trace's Warehouse H, known for its temperature swings that accelerate aging and concentrate flavor. The Gold Edition steps up from the standard bottling's 93 proof to around 103 proof, giving it more intensity — caramel, vanilla, and dried fruit with a bigger, warmer finish. Each bottle carries Blanton's signature horse-and-jockey stopper, with a different pose across the alphabet spelling out "BLANTON'S." This is a sought-after import pick for collectors who already know the standard bottling and want more proof and intensity.

How to drink Blanton's Gold Edition

Neat is the way to taste the extra proof this expression is built around — a single large cube is fine if you want it slightly cooler, but avoid over-diluting. It also makes a notably stronger Old Fashioned than the standard Blanton's bottling.
