Full product description

Benchmark Old No. 8 Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey is the original expression of the Benchmark family, a classic bourbon that delivers everyday authenticity and timeless quality. Made at Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky, it remains a trusted standard for bourbon lovers and is bottled at 40% ABV.

The nose opens with classic caramel notes, delicately balanced by a backdrop of stone fruit. On the palate, you'll encounter a robust and sturdy profile, with layers of fine leather and dry tobacco mingling with a touch of oak. A subtle hint of dried cherries adds complexity to the tasting experience, before a finish that is smooth and calming. It is an approachable, dependable bourbon for sipping neat, over ice or in classic cocktails.
