Benchmark Old N°8 Brand
In 1773, three McAfee brothers named James, George, and Robert left Virginia westward to explore the uncharted territory that would later become known as Kentucky. Initially traveling by canoe, the McAfee party eventually followed a native trail overland that led to the great buffalo crossing, where the brothers surveyed the land that now houses the world’s most awarded distillery – the Buffalo Trace Distillery. The survey marks they left behind are known as benchmarks, and this bourbon whiskey honors the pioneering spirits of these early American explorers.
TASTING NOTES :
NOSE: The nose carries notes of caramel with a delicate backdrop of stone fruits.
PALATE: A bold and robust palate with some notes of fine leather mingled with dry tobacco, a touch of oak, and a hint of dried cherries.
FINISH: The finish is smooth and soothing.
