Blantons Gold Edition
70 cl
/
51.5% Vol
Easily one of the best bourbons, if not whik(e)ys around. Designed with the connoisseur in mind expect a rich taste of dark fudge, citrus, oak and cream combined with the spiciness of white pepper and rye lead to a long finish that challenges the world’s finest single malts and rarest cognacs in complexity and character.

FAQs
American whiskey requires a grain mash bill, with bourbon mandating at least 51% corn, rye whiskey at least 51% rye, and Tennessee whiskey following bourbon rules with the additional Lincoln County Process charcoal filtration. Fermentation uses cultured yeast strains that significantly influence the flavour profile. New make spirit is distilled to no higher than 80% ABV and matured in new charred American white oak, the single most influential factor in the final flavour.
