About this whiskey

Benchmark Old No. 8 is the original expression of the Benchmark family, an everyday Kentucky straight bourbon made at Buffalo Trace Distillery.

The nose bears caramel with a delicate stone-fruit backdrop. The palate is robust and sturdy, with leather, dry tobacco, a touch of oak and a hint of dried cherries, and the finish is smooth and calming.
