Fun fact – in Japanese, “takara” means treasure, so you could even consider this Blanton’s Red Treasure Single Barrel Bourbon. From what I can tell, the main way to differentiate this from regular Blanton’s is the red ink for the barrel information and the inclusion of a bag and red box.
Blanton’s Red Single Barrel Bourbon is supposedly a least 8 years old while the “normal” Blanton’s in the US is about 6 years old, but both share the same 46.5% ABV. Maybe the “treasure” comes in the form of 2 extra years of aging.
