Produced at Buffalo Trace Distillery and drawn from individual barrels aged in historic \u003cstrong\u003eWarehouse H\u003c\/strong\u003e, the Red Edition combines the familiar Blanton’s profile with an export-only presentation that has made it especially desirable among collectors. Blanton’s itself traces the brand to Elmer T. Lee’s 1984 introduction of the modern single barrel bourbon concept.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBottled at \u003cstrong\u003e93 proof\u003c\/strong\u003e, the Red Edition delivers the classic Blanton’s balance of sweetness and spice. Expect aromas of \u003cstrong\u003evanilla, caramel, butterscotch, and citrus\u003c\/strong\u003e, followed by a palate showing \u003cstrong\u003ehoney, brown sugar, orchard fruit, toasted oak, baking spice, and gentle rye spice\u003c\/strong\u003e. The finish is smooth and lingering, with caramelized sweetness and oak carrying through the final sip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat separates Takara Red from the standard U.S. offering is its \u003cstrong\u003eJapan-exclusive positioning and collectible packaging\u003c\/strong\u003e. It is also frequently described by retailers as receiving additional aging compared with standard Blanton’s Original, although the bottle itself carries no age statement. For enthusiasts looking to expand a Blanton’s collection beyond the domestic lineup, Red Edition offers both familiar Warehouse H character and the appeal of a harder-to-find international release.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProof:\u003c\/strong\u003e 93 Proof\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 46.5%\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAge:\u003c\/strong\u003e Non-Age Stated\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Single Barrel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDistillery:\u003c\/strong\u003e Buffalo Trace Distillery\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMarket:\u003c\/strong\u003e Japanese Export Edition\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e United States — Kentucky\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFulfilled from California\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vista","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49107731185886,"sku":"VWS_200421315","price":166.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0798\/9130\/0574\/files\/Blanton_s_Single_Barrel_Red_Takara_Japanese_Edition_Bourbon_700mL_png.webp?v=1790292050","url":"https:\/\/bottlebattalion.com\/products\/blantons-single-barrel-red-japanese-750ml","provider":"North Coast Battalion Bottle Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
