I've been on a Woodfords Reserve kick for a while.
Pretty smooth imo. |

E H Taylor small batch is good and usually in that price range but has been a bit hard to find lately and prices are going up.
If you see it less than $50 ($45 or lower is what I would spend on it) it is worth a try. |

I'll second EH Taylor but I've been drinking Willett Pot Still Reserve lately and I think I like it better. May be easier/harder to find depending on your area.

Another vote for the Elijah Craig. Pretty good bourbon for the money.
Of course hard to beat regular old Makers Mark too. |

I think I will always have a bottle of Woodford Reserve Double Oaked on hand.
I prefer others but they're damn near irreplaceable now, at least here. You can find the WR anywhere. |

I’m a simple man.
I tried Buffalo trace. And many many others on arf. But I like what I like. And I keep going back to the $25 bottle. It’s just nice. And I like it more than eagle rare. I’ll still buy other stuff. But it’s my personal favorite so far. |

Centerfire Systems is just down the road from Woodford Reserve. The Woodford Reserve cherries are very popular. You can order them online if you aren't able to find them locally.

If you have a Total Wine around, go buy a bottle of Lonehand Whisky.
Don't get so wrapped up in name brands and sticker prices. Do some blind taste testing and embarrass your snooty acquaintances.   Yeah, I drank some tonight.

Russell's Reserve has been a go-to for me lately.
Four Roses Small Batch Select when I want something spicier and stouter. 1792 Full Proof. Woodford Reserve double oaked. |

Do some blind taste testing and embarrass your snooty acquaintances. Yeah, I drank some tonight. I’m a fan of blind tasting and underdogs. That said, this whiskey is fucking awful. Please stop recommending spirits. Don’t buy lonehand, or any total wine brands for that matter, unless your plan is to mix in coke. Instead, buy WT101, Evan Williams BiB, or early times. Any of these will make Lonehand taste like drain cleaner, which it basically is. |

Woodford Double Oaked Early Times BiB Eagle Rare Buffalo Trace If you haven't given Wild Turkey 101 an honest shot, do Old Forester 1920 Breckenridge Bourbon high proof or reserve Knob Creek 9 year Stagg JR if you like high proof and aren't afraid to spend a bit more. |

Wild Turkey Rare Breed, around $45 for me, is a great daily if you like a little higher proof. Think it's 116 proof.

Wild Turkey Rare Breed or OF 1920. And grab a bottle of Makers 46 while you are at it.

I'll throw something different in to the mix:
Nine Banded Wheated Bourbon. It is supposedly a "Texas" whiskey, but their Wheated is sourced from MGP. Pretty tasty, IMO. I get it at Total Wine here in TX. |

Another vote for Four Roses Single Barrel. It is priced at about $40 near me. For about $20, Larceny is also pretty good
