- first pour - definitely much woodier / oakier than normal blanton's - i do like it but it's drier and spicier with a much longer finish, surprisingly different than regular blanton's… i suspect it's aged longer, but blanton's doesn't provide age statements or barrel dates - more complex - extremely long finish reviews - https://www.breakingbourbon.com/review/blantons-gold-edition - https://thewhiskeyjug.com/bourbon-whiskey/blantons-gold-review/
