Blanton’s Takara Gold is an exceptional Japanese exclusive bourbon that represents the pinnacle of the Blanton’s lineup.
Bottled at a bold 103 proof (51.5% ABV), it delivers a rich, full bodied experience while retaining the smoothness Blanton’s is known for.
Aged for a minimum of 8 years, it develops deeper complexity than the Original Single Barrel.
On the nose, you’re greeted with warm caramel, toasted oak, vanilla, and a hint of citrus. The palate follows through with layers of honey, dark fruit, baking spice, and a subtle tobacco note, all balanced with a creamy mouthfeel. The longer aging really shows in the oaky depth and long, elegant finish.
It is incredibly difficult to obtain in the US, making it a true collector’s item. Whether you enjoy sipping rare bourbon or building a top tier collection, Blanton’s Takara Gold is a must have for its exclusivity, craftsmanship, and elevated flavor profile that stands out among premium single barrels.
