I was a wee junior in college when i got my then girlfriend wife of 2 months now to buy me a bottle of benchmark. Benchmark is where i first got my whistle wet.
8 bourbon was created by seagrams in the late 1960s as a luxury brand and was originally named benchmark bourbon.
Benchmark bourbon reddit. Alright i am at about 99 recovered from my cold time to get cracking at reviews again as i have a bit of a backlog for the first time ever thats about 10 or so for me. Definitely worth the couple bucks more than regular ancient age. It is as rough as rusty nails.
The nose bears caramel notes with a delicate stone fruit backdrop. Evan williams black label vs. Mcaffees benchmark old no.
In buffalo traces words. Benchmark is the only bourbon that ive found to be completely off putting. The youngest cheapest most overlooked bourbon brother in the buffalo trace mashbill 1 family.
Ancient ancient age 10 star is the bourbon that got me into bourbon and remains my favorite on the bottom shelf. Benchmark bourbon named after the mcafee brothers who surveyed a site just north of frankfort in the late 1700s this rye recipe bourbon is yet another label that honors the storied history of the distillery and the land it sits on. 80pf nas 12 that label is totally not a jd ripoff.
The brand name was purchased by sazerac in 1992 and mcafees was added to the name in honor of the mcafee brothers who surveyed a site. It pretty much mirrors the nose but with a little nuttiness it starts sweet and finishes sour. Benchmark all the way its so pureley bourbon evan williams is a good option too id say evan williams bonded or benchmark and even then my vote is for benchmark always have some on hand.
And indeed thats exactly what benchmark deliversand at a pretty serious value. View entire discussion 11 comments. 1699 for 175l tasted neat in a glencairn.
8 80 proof price. And finish of the benchmark. Benchmark was the first bourbon that i ever bought.
This bourbon comes across as sweet oily and rich but pleasantly approachable and easy drinking at the same time. Review 81 mcafees benchmark old number 8. Vanilla candy corn hint of caramel theres a light note of pepper or some other spice there i just cant hammer it down.
It was produced at the four roses distillery when seagrams owned it. I saw it on a list of bottom shelf bourbons and that it would be worth a shot at 10. Hey all about to republish my spirits list and am reconsidering my well bourbon.
Im currently carrying ewbl which i like for its bite and 86pf which can cut through in cocktails but when i do a side by side of the whiskeys neat i prefer the flavor.
