ON A FUN NOTE:
Blanton's uses 8 different horse and jockey bottle stoppers which leads collectors on a fun little hunting game to collect all eight. Each stopper is marked with a single letter that spells Blanton's when the set has been completed. NO cheating and buying just the stopper online! If you'd like to send me a little thank you for all my free cocktail recipes, I'm missing letters N and A!
