Blantons has become more sparse on shelves as the next generation is rocketing bourbon' s popularity. Nose: orange peels, leather, brown sugar, I get apricots (I may be crazy). Palate: dark cocoa powder, vanilla, slight orange or lemon zest, pepper. Finish is short but full of flavor, oily coating that I prefer in whiskies. Everyone should enjoy a bottle of Blantons at least once in there bourbon experience. Here's the Elmer T. Lee and here's to you, keep drinking my friends... Skol!
