What else is similar to blantons that he may like. I think Blantons is made buy buffalo trace but I’ve never had either one so I’m. It sure how similar they are.

Wild Turkey 101 will be appreciated, Rare Breed is a good statement. Larceny Bourbon is a very nice sipping wheater and like previously stated Weller or Buffalo Trace is good also.

You can't make good bourbon without it..... maybe an interpretation of good bourbon but limestone filtered water is a key ingredient. No government employees were harmed in the making of this mess.
