DESCRIPTION & TASTING PROFILE
Buy Blanton’s Silver Edition 750ml and you’re getting a genuinely elusive branch of the Blanton’s family: a single-barrel expression developed for international duty-free and export markets, distinguished by its silver-trimmed label and matching silver horse-and-jockey stopper rather than the classic gold of the domestic Original.

Sensory Tasting Notes
The Nose
Rich honey, clover, and pecan lead, with dried fruit and vanilla underneath — noticeably more intense than the standard Original given the higher proof.
The Palate
Full and rich, delivering tobacco, cinnamon, and charred marshmallow alongside sharp apricot, butter, and pepper; the extra 5 proof over the Original adds real structural weight.
The Finish
Long, developing from toffee apple into pecan and caramel, closing with a bold, peppery rye note that outlasts the domestic Blanton’s finish.
The Heritage
Blanton’s has produced market-specific expressions since Elmer T. Lee created the original single-barrel bourbon in 1984, and Silver Edition was developed specifically to suit international, particularly Japanese, consumer preferences — one of the brand’s earliest and most loyal overseas markets. Because it was never distributed domestically and has since been discontinued, every bottle reaching US collectors arrives through international or secondary channels, making authentication and sourcing transparency especially important for buyers, and turning genuine bottles into some of the more actively chased pieces among serious Blanton’s collectors completing the full lineup.
