Blanton's Special Reserve Green Label Bourbon

Product Description

Blanton's Green Label: The Perfect Place to Start

Every bourbon journey has to start somewhere, and for a lot of drinkers, that somewhere is Green Label. Blanton's Original Single Barrel set the standard in 1984 as the world's first commercially released single barrel bourbon, drawn from the legendary center-cut sections of Warehouse H at Buffalo Trace Distillery. Green Label Special Reserve takes that same DNA and softens it down to a genuinely welcoming 80 proof, purpose-built as an international gateway into single barrel bourbon for drinkers who've never tried one before.

That gentler proof doesn't mean gentler quality. Green Label still comes from Buffalo Trace's signature high-rye mash bill, hand-selected barrel by barrel, individually labeled and numbered just like every other bottle in the Blanton's family. What it offers instead is approachability: a smooth, honeyed introduction to what single barrel bourbon actually tastes like before stepping up to the bolder Original, Gold, or Straight From the Barrel expressions.

If you've heard the name Blanton's and never actually tried it, or you're looking for a genuinely easy entry point to hand a curious friend, this is the bottle built for exactly that moment.
