Producer history Blanton's

The name honors Albert B. “Colonel” Blanton, a historical figure at the distillery who worked there from 1897 and became president in 1921; the modern commercial version of Blanton's, the first commercially bottled single-barrel bourbon, was introduced by Elmer T. Lee in 1984 using barrels selected from the warehouse known as Warehouse H. The brand is part of the portfolio linked to Buffalo Trace Distillery and the Sazerac Company.
