Benchmark Top Floor
86 proof NAS (assumed 4 years) Bourbon Buffalo Trace Frankfort, KY $16.99

Crisp fall apple and green apple character with less youthful corn sweetness; more rounded and slightly oakier than the entry level.

Modest body with applejuice and corn notes on the mid-palate; not a lot of sweetness upfront but more rounded than the entry level; a little more oak-forward with fruit toward the tail end.

Fairly decent start to a finish with more body and a slight hug; short but present.

Average
A light and refreshing bourbon with modest fruitiness that leans slightly toward sipping but remains understated overall.
