The complete set of 8 Blanton's Original Single Barrel Bourbon Whiskey in the 375ml half-bottle format — each stopper a different letter spelling B-L-A-N-T-O-N'-S, with the horse and jockey figurines showing 8 sequential scenes of a horse race. All 8 letters. All 8 race scenes. The complete collection in miniature.
Blanton's Single Barrel Bourbon was created in 1984 by Master Distiller Elmer T. Lee as the world's first commercially marketed single barrel bourbon. The iconic horse-and-jockey stopper — introduced with the original release — became one of the most recognized collectible elements in American spirits. Each of the eight stopper letters represents a different pose in the horse race narrative: when the eight bottles are placed in order spelling "BLANTON'S," the figurines tell the complete story of a thoroughbred race from standing at the gate through crossing the finish line.
The 375ml format makes the complete horse set more accessible for display — half the shelf space of the full 750ml set while representing the same complete stopper collection. Each bottle is Warehouse H single barrel bourbon, 93 proof, from the high-rye Buffalo Trace mash bill that defines Blanton's characteristic profile of citrus, oak, vanilla, caramel, and butterscotch with baking spices.
Please read before purchasing: Due to Blanton's wax seal design, there is potential for leakage during transit. Resolution options are available if shipping protection is purchased, but replacements and exchanges are not offered. Boxes and bags are not included.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Why 375ml instead of 750ml? The 375ml half-bottle format provides the complete stopper collection at half the display footprint of the 750ml set. For collectors focused on the stopper collection rather than maximum liquid volume, the 375ml set is a more space-efficient complete display option.
- What are the 8 stopper letters and what do the scenes show? The eight stoppers spell B-L-A-N-T-O-N'-S. Each horse and jockey pose depicts a sequential moment in a thoroughbred race from the starting gate to crossing the finish line, creating a complete race narrative when the bottles are arranged in order.
- How difficult is it to assemble a complete set? Individual Blanton's bottles are assigned stoppers at random. Getting all 8 letters requires either purchasing many individual bottles (with no guarantee of distribution across all 8) or finding a retailer who has assembled a complete set. Complete sets in any format are substantially harder to source than individual bottles.
- Are boxes and bags included? Boxes and bags are not included with this set. The 8 bottles are complete with their original wax seals and stoppers.
