Named after Colonel Albert B. Blanton, a true pioneer in bourbon history, this expression honors his tradition of selecting exceptional barrels for his personal reserve—each one handpicked and stored in the iconic Warehouse H.
In 1984, Master Distiller Elmer T. Lee paid tribute to Colonel Blanton’s legacy by launching Blanton’s Single Barrel Bourbon—the world’s first commercially released single barrel bourbon. A bold innovation that forever changed the industry.
 
Blanton’s Straight From the Barrel is the third release in the series, following the Original 93 proof and the Gold 103 proof. Bottled at cask strength, uncut and unfiltered, this expression delivers the purest form of Blanton’s bourbon—rich, intense, and layered with character. A favorite among connoisseurs and collectors alike, it’s a true testament to the craftsmanship that defines the Blanton’s name.
