About this bottle
Benchmark Single Barrel Kentucky Straight Bourbon comes from Buffalo Trace Distillery, aged a minimum of eight years in new charred oak barrels and bottled from an individual barrel rather than blended across multiple barrels for a batch. That single-barrel approach means each bottling carries the specific character of one barrel's maturation rather than the averaged-out consistency of Benchmark's standard release. Expect a rich amber color with caramel, vanilla, and toffee notes on the nose, developing into a fuller flavor on the palate typical of Buffalo Trace's house style. It's a strong step up from standard Benchmark for drinkers who want single-barrel character at a still-accessible price.
How to drink Benchmark Single Barrel
Neat or on the rocks lets the single-barrel character show clearly against the standard Benchmark release. It also makes a noticeably richer Old Fashioned.
