Lee. Produced at Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky (though the Blanton's brand is often described as its own entity within the Sazerac portfolio), it is named after Colonel Albert B. Blanton, a visionary who dedicated over 50 years to the distillery and its traditions. Each bottle is hand-selected from a single barrel stored in the renowned Warehouse H, ensuring a distinct and often celebrated profile for every release.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blanton's","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67597207961907,"sku":"2024 BL TK RD DM11","price":140.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0807\/1187\/6915\/files\/Blanton_s_Takara_Red_Single_Barrel_Bourbon_2024__Small_Crack_in_Wax_170d5cf7-1e1e-483c-a46a-f78e6a7a0650.jpg?v=1790799128","url":"https:\/\/subrosaselections.com\/products\/2024-blantons-takara-red-single-barrel-bourbon-2024-small-crack-in-wax-93-proof-750ml-1","provider":"Sub Rosa Selections","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
