Benchmark Top Floor Bourbon (86 Proof)
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed March 7, 2023 (edited January 17, 2024)Nice value whiskey to start this off and set expectations. Nose for me is pretty much dominated by ethanol with a bit of cinnamon and baking spice. Palate is hard to figure but for what I assume is young bourbon about what you expect hints of fruit,grain and spice. Finish strong licorice a hint of anise and lingers a hit with not a lot of burn. Not bad for what it is. Tried multiple times neat but this was with 2 drops of water -
Benchmark Full Proof Bourbon (125 Proof)
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed January 29, 2023 (edited May 6, 2023)Full bodied fairly balanced. For a full proof at under 25 dollars this one is hard to beat. Lots of flavors from toffee, cinnamon a hint of oak and leather and some fruit notes blackberries. Honestly I hesitate to write such good things about it. Solid 3.5 hut with the price it is a 4 star
