Impossible to find Blanton's in my area now so I am on the hunt for a replacement. RRSB is not only a great substitute for Blanton's it may be better. If you don't like that spicy, big, bold WT flavor profile this won't change your mind, but honestly, this bourbon is within spitting distance of the Master's Keep offerings. Amazing.

I use Blanton's to set the highest mark for $60 single barrels. The flavor for Russell's is the amplified WT profile. I prefer the BT family flavors better, but RSB is both excellent and available. While Blanton's is unmatched IMO, it is far from accessible. I also like the Old Forester Prohibition Style @ $60. Different flavors, but up there with the best.
