Benchmark Full Proof is a Kentucky straight bourbon bottled at a robust 62.5% ABV. In bourbon terms, that means a richer, more concentrated style with fuller flavour and a stronger alcoholic intensity than standard bottlings.
For a new drinker, expect a classic bourbon profile built around corn sweetness, oak, and baking spice. The high strength can make it feel bold and warming, and it often benefits from sipping slowly or with a few drops of water.
