About this bottle
McAfee Brothers Benchmark Bonded is a Kentucky straight bourbon bottled in bond — meaning it's at least four years old, 100 proof, and produced at a single distillery in a single distilling season under federal bonded-warehouse regulations. Benchmark is Buffalo Trace's value-tier bourbon line, and the McAfee Brothers name nods to the distillery's historical lineage in Kentucky whiskey-making. The bottled-in-bond standard guarantees a level of consistency and proof that non-bonded bourbons at this price point don't always offer. Expect a straightforward, oak-and-caramel bourbon profile with the extra proof giving it more backbone than Benchmark's standard bottling.
How to drink McAfee Brothers Benchmark Bonded
Neat or on the rocks lets the bonded proof carry through cleanly. It's also a reliable, budget-friendly base for an Old Fashioned when you want real backbone without a big price tag.
