Evan Williams white label, 100 proof, bottled in bond, is some of the best bourbon for the money that Ive ever tried. Im sipping it right now in fact.

Currently have a bottle of makers select. That’s the single barrel store pick. It’s amazing.

Good idea, OP!
I found that I liked bourbon about 5 or so years ago. My now wife took me on a trip to Kentucky where we did most of the bourbon trail. It was a great experience! My favorite bourbons are, in no particular order, Woodford Reserve, Blantons, Four Roses (single barrel or small batch), Bulleit Rye, Maker's Mark Private Select and Knob Creak Single Barrel. |

Bulleit is probably the one I turn to as a buy in bulk and overall go to. Elijah Craig is one of my favorites. Moonrise is a distillery in Clayton, GA that's distilling Kentucky style bourbon. Owner is from Kentucky and learned there. I also enjoy Woodford reserve and 1792 when I want something different from my normal. I actuality, I'm not really picky and will drink just about any bourbon at least once. Have split bottles of Larceny, Old Crow, Old Forester, Maker's, and numerous others with @sourtherncross and even drank Peanut Butter Flavored whiskey with @KaiK View Quote That was not my doing. That shit was awful. |

Might be time to go back on drinking hiatus... |

And yeah, I too am still kicking myself for not getting a bottle of it but that trip was expensive enough without dropping a couple hundred more for a single bottle. |

But because every hard to find bourbon is in demand it is hard to find it at retail here. SB or SiB is about $99. I've seen it way higher as well. Buffalo Trace is like water out here, plenty to be found. |

When the EH Taylor is available, the Small Batch is $36 and the Single is $69. Weller is pretty much all lottery here anymore.
