Product Description

In 1773, three McAfee Brothers names James, George and Robert left Virginia westward to explore the uncharted territory that would later be known as Kentucky. Travelling by canoe at first, the McAfee Company eventually followed a native trail overland that led to the great buffalo crossing, where the brothers surveyed the land now home to the world's most award-winning distillery -- Buffalo Trace Distillery. The surveypr marked left behind are known as benchmarks and this Kentucky Straight Burbon Whiskey honors the pioneering spirit of these early American explorers. Top Floor Bourbon that matures on the top warehouse floor tends to age faster as heat rises. This top floor Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey is smooth and well-rounded to be enjoyed straight, with ice, or in your favorite cocktail.
