Blanton’s marked four decades of the original single barrel with a 700ml release bottled at a hefty 62% ABV, dialing up the intensity on the caramel, citrus, and oak profile that turned the brand into a shelf staple in the first place. The real giveaway is up top: a white ceramic horse-and-jockey stopper that breaks from the gold-toned standards collectors have been chasing letter by letter for years. Only a small number were produced, and the ones reaching secondary retail are landing well above sticker. Uncrate Supply has it at $2,850, ships USA only, requires an adult signature, and isn’t returnable. Worth knowing going in: at that price, this is a display bottle for serious collectors, not a Tuesday-night pour.
