Straight Bourbon Whiskey Since 1842, the Wood family deeply engages in Oregon's local, cultural, environmental and political landscapes toasting the spirit of Oregon heritage. We welcome pioneers of all generations to celebrate and adore the Pacific Northwest with this great bourbon. If the Pacific Northwest has a patron saint of ambition and civic imagination, it may well be Simon Benson. This is a name etched into Oregon historic landmarks for over a century including the Benson Bridge located over the Multnomah Falls. This 4 ½ yr old wheated bourbon pays homage to this legacy carrying a warmth and depth well suited to the season. 92 Proof | 46% ALC/VOL | 750 ML Benson Bourbon is made with bourbon traditions developed 150 years ago using 70% corn, 16% Wheat, and 14% Malted Barely. Aged 4.5 years in brand new charred oak barrels. Tasting notes: This is a rich smooth whiskey taking sweetness from corn and rich buttery notes from wheat and does not have the rye "spice" many bourbons have or as seen in the Columbia Bourbon. "Soft brown sugar and delicate hints of vanilla give way to fresh oatmeal cream pie." Other notes of rich vanilla, chocolate, fruits, honey, and walnuts. Donation details: Portion of the proceeds go to the upkeep and maintenance of the historic Multnomah Falls Lodge.
