Benchmark Small Batch Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey
90 proof NAS Bourbon Buffalo Trace Frankfort, KY $14.99
Nose

Caramel and vanilla tones with subtle oak; corn sweetness largely absent; hints of honey butter.

Palate

Minimal upfront sweetness; mid-palate delivery of caramel and spice with a peppered honey character on the finish.

Finish

Drying effect with subtle spice; moderate length.

Fair
A mid-range offering with a stronger nose than palate, delivering subtle spice and drying oak but lacking the sweetness to round out the experience.
