Description

Benchmark Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey pays tribute to the adventurous spirit of the McAfee Brothers, who, in 1773, embarked on a journey to explore uncharted territory that eventually became the grounds for Buffalo Trace Distillery. The marks they left behind, known as benchmarks, symbolize the pioneering essence of this bourbon. Crafted with time-honored traditions and meticulous attention to detail, Benchmark stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of those early American pioneers.
