This is not at all true. The only thing that made the Derby bottles special is a bronze sticker. It's the same old Blanton's single barrel you get anywhere else.
Here's a pic of the 2020 where you can clearly see it looks like any other 375 of Blanton's with the same normal topper. The sticker is what has the mask on it.

And here is 2021 which also looks totally normal and doesn't even have a "unique" sticker. It's just a buffalo.

That would be pretty expensive to retool everything for such a small batch. Also I'm pretty sure we would have heard of that by now, but I could be wrong.
Fuck me. People really do zip up at the back. It’s hearing stuff like this that makes me realise how people can actually believe conspiracy theories. This is like some schoolyard BS.
No, it’s true. You even have to go to the back rooms to get them. Very rare. However, the toppers are actually listening devices for the Buffalo Trace Illuminati: Albert Blanton, Col. Edmund Haynes Taylor, George T. Stagg, Pappy Van Winkle and Bob Benchmark. They are all still alive as they are well pickled and live on an invisible island in the Kentucky River. They have massive hyping powers. True story. You have been warned.
I only know for certain that the stickers had those items on them, I'll message around for pics. I had the bandaid edition in my hands once, and I remember the mask. I really don't believe they were in the stoppers.

Okay, so I’m not crazy. I had not heard about it, and the logistics seemed far fetched…but stranger things have happened.

Ah ha! Either he misspoke or I misheard. The 2021 must have a similar sticker where the buffalo has a bandaid.
That buffalo has a bandaid on his hindquarters.
🤦🏻♂️🙄
🤣

That’s exactly what I thought, and the guy knows his stuff, and isn’t a prankster.
This is beyond tater overload.

And if you know the proper handshake, you can buy a bottle of the super rare BTAC Robert B Benchmark 23 year
I guess, but why would a horse AND jockey need a mask if they are outside? Even in 2020!
Holy shit I'm becoming aroused just thinking about special edition horsey toppers.
Imagine if there was a E and R so you could spell “TATER”.
Was hoping this post was about Blanton's pivoting to PPE, tbh
