Updated April 2026.
Both bottles come from Buffalo Trace Distillery. They are not the same bourbon. Blanton’s Original prints 93 proof (46.5% ABV) and Mash Bill #2 as a single barrel on the official page. Colonel E.H. Taylor Small Batch prints 100 proof (50%), Mash Bill #1, and style “Straight Bourbon.” 100 proof is not bottled-in-bond by itself. Official Small Batch page does not print BiB. Allocated. No mash percentages or street price.
