Favorite Bourbon?

[Pugsley]

Bulleit Bourbon. A nice smooth whiskey with hints of vanilla. In the $20 range.

[Jack Straw]

Beam is my staple, also like Elijah Craig, Woodford Reserve, pretty much anything I can get my hands on. For the good stuff I cut with a little cool water.

I tried this stuff over the weekend called baker's, it was damn good and I expect to buy some soon.

Old Foresters is my go to budget bourbon

Woodford, Van Winkle lot B, Pappy Van Winkle 15 when moving up the scale a bit

Sazerac Rye, Pappy Van Winkle 23, Willett "Iron Fist", Black Maple Hill 23 when a friend is buying

Both are great and I drink depending on what I'm in the mood for, and of course what kind of cigar I'm smoking. This is just imo, I know how everyone's tastes run their own way.]

agree very rich, it gets its extra sweetness supposedly because it spend more time in the oak barrels. I find Woodford reserve to be much more flavorful but knob creek was my first and therefor will always have a place in my liquor cabinet.

Woodford Reserve!

Pappy 20 year. I've had the 23 year and it's fantastic, but there's nothing that can justify the extra $120 bucks for 3 more years of aging. I recently picked up a bottle of the Jefferson 17 yr Presiden's Selection and am looking forward to trying it with a nice stooooge.

+1

Can't beat Bulleit in the quality/price ratio.

For everyday sipping I like Markers Mark

[Blackcat]

Basil & Haydens. Doesn't get much smother in my opinion. Not strong at all 80 Proof but you'd never notice it. A++

[Earley]

Elijah Craig is pretty much my go to bourbon, but I did pick up a bottle of Four Roses small batch recently and that is some smooth stuff.

Wild turkey, Mr.Beam

My favorite is probably Knob Creek, but Basil Hayden is good as well.
