The Benchmark brand was created by Seagram's in the late 1960s as a premium brand before being acquired by Sazerac. Today, it is produced at the Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky, maintaining a reputation for incredible value and quality.
Crafted at the historic Buffalo Trace Distillery, this bourbon honors the pioneering Spirit of the McAfee brothers who surveyed Kentucky in 1773. It is distilled using the same high-rye mash bill #1 as some of the world's most coveted whiskeys.
