Nice comparison. I prefer Buffalo Trace and use it as a primer bourbon. I have 20 bottles on my shelf, 5 of which are store picks. 🥃

Do Buffalo Trace store picks always beat the standard bottle?

@@BeThere_BestServedNeatOnIce All the store picks I have tried are a little better than the shelfers.

Walt has a really nice channel,, I have the entire line up of benchmark and the only one I ever tried is the 8 which like everyone says is just maybe a mixer,, I do like Buffalo Trace and mostly Buffalo Trace store picks ,,, I have been picking up some banger picks lately ,,,,

We like tournaments but they can be a grind. I love the Benchmark line and Buffalo Trace store picks can be awesome!

Totally agree! We have yet to pick up a BT store pick, but definitely would!🥃

I have to say, I agree with the outcome! I enjoy BT, but I just find that I like Benchmark SiB more! The only way BT wins is if it’s a store pick, all of them I have had are stellar! Great video!!! 🥃

Fair enough! Thanks for watching! Cheers!🥃

Those choices are close, bit I give the win to Benchmark SB because I can find it easier. Great video.

I can’t wait to try buffalo trace and compare the benchmark single barrel myself. I’m a true noob in the bourbon world with only a few bottles under my belt the benchmark being one

Great job, appreciate the honest review! Lol, who cares what taters think…. They are part of the problem with bourbon! I really like the entire benchmark line, and BT for the record.

Thanks! They are definitely both great bottles. Cheers!🥃

Thanks for mentioning me! That was very nice! I haven't tried the Benchmark Single Barrel yet, but I will be trying it soon. I have steered away, because the Benchmark 8 was one of the worst things I have ever tasted, besides maybe Canadian Mist. Buffalo Trace for a 90 proof bourbon, has one of the longest finishes...it give you this nice warm suttle hug. Not many $30 bourbons at 90 proof can do this. I enjoyed the video and don't apologize - everyone's palate is different.

Very true about benchmark 8! The single barrel is awesome. Definitely recommend it, especially for the price! Cheers!🥃
