Special Reserve is a lower strength single barrel bourbon from Blanton's. Each bottle is hand-filled, hand-labeled, hand-sealed and individually numbered.
Please Note: Unfortunately, the wax atop these Blanton's bottlings is currently prone to cracking. We're informed that this should be a short term problem, but please be aware when purchasing this tasty bourbon. (Don't worry, the delicious liquid inside won't be affected!)
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
Spiced. Grainy sweetness. Buttery, fruity tang.
Light, balanced, gentle spices, toffee. Dried peels.
Spices, medium-length.
I know each barrel is different but I've had 3 bottles of this stuff and consitantly it was the "Lowland" of bourbon whiskeys, think Auchentoshan with a corn bite but same sweet subtle fade. Best Bourbon for non bourbon drinkers, very approchable.
