Blantons Single Barrel Red Japanese 750ml

Blanton’s Single Barrel Red Japanese Edition – 750ml

Blanton’s Single Barrel Red Japanese Edition, commonly known among collectors as Blanton’s Takara Red, is a Japanese-market release of the iconic Kentucky single barrel bourbon. Produced at Buffalo Trace Distillery and drawn from individual barrels aged in historic Warehouse H, 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.

Bottled at 93 proof, the Red Edition delivers the classic Blanton’s balance of sweetness and spice. Expect aromas of vanilla, caramel, butterscotch, and citrus, followed by a palate showing honey, brown sugar, orchard fruit, toasted oak, baking spice, and gentle rye spice. The finish is smooth and lingering, with caramelized sweetness and oak carrying through the final sip.

What separates Takara Red from the standard U.S. offering is its Japan-exclusive positioning and collectible packaging. 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.
