@CoElkHunter - Not usually had in a mixed drink but no one should tell you how to enjoy your bourbon.
I’ve had Blanton’s a few times and enjoyed everything about it except the price. IMO there are many better options that come in below the $100 mark. And there are those of us that remember buying this in the early 1990’s for $25-30 a bottle or less. After the bourbon boom of the late 90’s and into the 2000, the price skyrocketed.
Don’t get me wrong, they deserve their place in the market and they are a wonderful bourbon. I’ve just found more interesting options at a more attractive price point.
