History,
Produced exclusively for the Japanese export market at 80 proof, Blanton's Black Label is one of the rarest bourbon whiskeys in the world. Remarkably similar to the green-labeled Special Reserve, the main difference is an 8-year minimum aged barrel selection process (as opposed to the standard 6), which produces a more complex, robust, and refined tasting experience. Like the Takara Red edition, the Black Label is a statement piece for any serious collector and a must-try for any keen Blanton's enthusiast.
Tasting Notes,
Nose: The aroma is powerful with vanilla, dried cherries, dark chocolate, and honey granola.
Palate: The mouth-feel is silky with rich notes of buttered toffee, deep oak, buttery fudge, and spice cake.
Finish: The finish is long with more toffee and praline notes.
