Additional Information 

Blanton's Bourbon is made from a combination of corn, rye, and malted barley, which are mashed and fermented before being distilled in copper pot stills. The bourbon is then aged for a minimum of six years in new charred oak barrels, which impart a rich color and complex flavor profile to the whiskey.
