    I haven't had bourbon in years, but I prefer wheat to rye, Makers 46 is very good.

    Surprised no one has mentioned Maker's Mark.

    It's become fashionable to dismiss Maker's, I'm a fan though, I prefer the warmth and smoothness of a wheater to the course bite of rye.

    I'm a scotch guy rather than bourbon, but I have to say that hat it you're ever in London or Scotland and get a chance to go to this place, SAY YES!!!

    Its a membership club. They buy whole casks from all the distilleries, rank them all by taste profile and sell them. Single cask bottles from everywhere!

    So 150 bucks for a 5th is ''bottom shelf'' ?
    These threads tickle me.

    -Sky Box Suites
    Bookers or if you can find the Pappy

    -Mid Level Seats
    Woodford or Makers 46

    -Upper Level Seats
    Jim Beam Double Oak or Black

    I’ve come to the point where all I need is some ice and a splash of water and I mean just a splash . Let it melt down a lil bit and enjoy. Unless it’s the Beam, this point the coke gets added as a mixer

    Weller 12-$40
    OWA-$35
    WSR-$17.99
    CEHTSiB-$45
    4RSB- $39.99

    Not sure what prices you pay or what is considered affordable for your budget, but yes, those would be my daily sippers.

    It's awesome. Granted my really high end whiskey experience is a little lacking.

    ok.

  • RxDawgRxDawg ✭✭✭✭✭ Graduate

    Not sure if this counts, but I also absolutely love Jameson Irish Whiskey. I'll get the high end stuff occasionally, but I love the basic stuff on the rocks.

    It's strange, this is the second whiskey tastes thread I've seen this on the web this week. Hmmm

  • mattmd2mattmd2 ✭✭✭✭✭ Graduate

    Listing because I haven't seen it mentioned yet, but it's a solid choice. If you can find it near you, you should try it. It's available here in Chattanooga.

    Angel's Envy - $60
    Angel's Envy Rye - $72

    My friends in MI love it and they can't get it so I take some up whenever I travel for work.

    Game-Day: Maker's Mark
    Favorite: Blanton's Gold

    Fun Story: I was in Germany a few months ago and the hotel I was in offered Blanton's, Four Roses, Jack Daniels, and Jim Beam all for the same price...

    I can get all of them for those prices except for the single barrel. The single barrel runs me 85ish if I can even find it

    I had a few of the SiB and W12 bunkered thankfully, so I haven’t had to search for a while. I’ve heard that the recent craze and strict allocations have doubled the price on both of those. I might would pay $85 for the EH Taylor, but no chance on the W12. I think OWA is superior to W12 anyway.

    The EH single is worth the 85 dollars to me, OWA is running close to the same on the secondary market if unable to locate in the store
