About this deal

How often do we see a brand go from one “bottom shelf” bourbon to a whole new line of bourbons all at once? Not very often. But here they are, the McAfee Brothers Benchmark Bourbon Collection; 5 new bourbons all released at the same time. Beginning in late 2020, these bourbons became available, but only in Indiana. I’m not sure of the rationale behind that, but Buffalo Trace/ Sazerac generally knows what they are doing. Since then, their distribution has become much more widespread. However, at the time, this new set of bourbons intrigued me, so I drove to Indiana to get them! Benchmark Bourbon Was Named After The McAfee Brothers Benchmark bourbon, from the Sazerac Company and Buffalo Trace Distillery [ 4], is a great bourbon at a great price point. It blends exceptionally well with Coke and is considered one of the top choices for mixed drinks, alongside Caribbean rums. Three whiskey-based liqueurs of 70 U.S. proof (35% alcohol by volume) also carry the brand name – one with apple flavoring, one with peach flavoring and the third with brown sugar flavoring.

Consider this similar product...

Palate: The mouthfeel is somewhat thin. That’s probably to be expected on a 95 proof, chill filtered bourbon like this. But the flavors are still nice and rounded. I can find flavors of cinnamon spiced apples, cherries and vanilla. Coupled with a sort of crème brulee taste, I would say that this bourbon is pretty perfectly balanced as far as sweet notes go. There’s even a bit of toasted oak. My expectations have been exceeded at this point. My journey into the world of spirits began as a pub owner, where I cultivated memorable experiences for patrons and nurtured a deep appreciation for fine liquors.

Over time, Benchmark‌ Bourbon gained its reputation⁣ for being ​a benchmark of quality in the bourbon industry, hence its⁢ name.

Proof.A nose of toasted oak and baking spice leads to a complex palate with notes of caramel and citrus undertones. 3) Benchmark Small Batch This robust and bold bourbon is bottled at 125-proof. It has a deep chocolate and brown sugar smell that’s followed by a taste of baking spice and caramel. Benchmark Small Batch So, if you’re ready to elevate your whiskey experience, make sure ​to include Benchmark Bourbon in your collection. Its‌ unparalleled smoothness and ‌fantastic ⁣flavor⁣ profile ⁣make⁣ it an absolute delight for any whiskey connoisseur. In August of this year, Buffalo Trace quietly released a revamped lineup of their bottom-shelf staple, Benchmark Bourbon. For years, Benchmark wore no age statement and was watered down to a measly 80 proof.
