Bottled at 64.5% ABV with no filtering and no water added, Blanton's Straight From the Barrel arrives in the glass exactly as it left the cask. Each 750 ml bottle is drawn from a single barrel, so the wood's influence comes through at full strength rather than being softened by dilution.
The pour leans on oak spice and caramel richness, with vanilla depth underneath and barrel heat running through the middle. The finish is long and layered, making this a bourbon that rewards slow sipping or a small measure of water to open it up.
