Benchmark Small Batch is a 90-proof Kentucky Straight Bourbon from the Buffalo Trace Distillery, featuring Mash Bill #1 (a low-rye recipe) and select barrels. Tasting notes often include vanilla, caramel, and oak on the nose, with a palate of brown sugar, baking spice, and dark fruit. The finish is typically described as clean, spicy, and lingering with notes of oak, clove, and corn.
