Blanton's Original Single Barrel Bourbon is the whiskey that created the single barrel category when it was first released in 1984 by Buffalo Trace Distillery, and this 50ml miniature brings the full Blanton's experience in its most collectible and giftable format. The iconic round bottle, distinctive hand-applied label, and the signature horse-and-jockey stopper — one of eight different stopper poses lettered B-L-A-N-T-O-N-S that spell the brand name when collected together — are all present in perfect miniature form. Each bottle is drawn from a single barrel, aged in Buffalo Trace's famous Warehouse H on the distillery's prized lower floors, and bottled at 46.5% ABV without chill filtration. The 50ml format is ideal for gifting, tasting flights, stocking stuffers, cocktail experimentation, and for Blanton's stopper collectors who want to build their complete B-L-A-N-T-O-N-S set one bottle at a time. The stopper letter on any given bottle varies by batch — the letter received will be confirmed on the specific bottle in stock.

FAQ
Why are Blanton's stoppers collectible?
Each Blanton's bottle is sealed with one of eight different horse-and-jockey stopper poses, each stamped with one letter of B-L-A-N-T-O-N-S. Collectors seek to acquire all eight to spell the full name, making every Blanton's bottle — including the 50ml mini — part of the broader collecting tradition. The stopper letter on any specific bottle is determined by whichever batch it was drawn from.
Does the 50ml mini have the same liquid as the full 750ml bottle?
Yes. The 50ml miniature contains the same Blanton's Original Single Barrel bourbon at 46.5% ABV as the full-size bottle, drawn from a single barrel at Buffalo Trace and bottled to the same standard.
