Bourbons..

57stratdawg · Oct 28, 2015

Let's hear it, what's your go to or favorites?

Blantons
Woodford
Mitchner's Rye

Just picked up a thing of Basil Hayden. It's pretty good. About as mild as a bourbon can get.

If I'm drinking rye, Jefferson.

Old Forester, Woodford, Bulleit, Bulleit Rye

57stratdawg · Oct 28, 2015

Never tried Old Fester, but I hear good things. I think it's a victim of packaging. It looks dated.

FreeDawg · Oct 28, 2015

Charter for gameday mixing. Blanton's for rocks. Bulliet rye for something different. My cabinet has plenty more but that's the money rotation.

Virginia Gentleman. Originally distilled in Kentucky then shipped to Virginia. Can't get it in Mississippi.

That said, I can get White label Dickel, which I like better than every other bourbon except Va. Gentleman

Jefferson's Ocean
Old Rip Van Winkle 10yr
Woodford
Gentleman Jack ( I know its not Bourbon, but I like it)

Angels envy = pretty damn good.

Willet. Please tell me I'm not the only lucky idiot to be gifted this and fall in love with it. So smooth.

Bane.sixpack · Oct 28, 2015

Maker's Mark and Sprite.. Great Stuff!

MaroonCrusader · Oct 28, 2015

I second the Old Charter for gameday mixing.

Col. Forbin · Oct 28, 2015

Knob Creek is my go to,Woodford is second.

Blantons if I want to spend a touch more money.

Original48 · Oct 28, 2015

Blanton's.

Crazy Cotton · Oct 28, 2015

my new favorite as well. And very reasonable for the quality

No votes for Elijah Craig?

Joe Schmedlap · Oct 28, 2015

1835 Texas Bourbon
Can it be bourbon if it's not made in Kentucky?
Nevertheless, this stuff is an amazing sipping whiskey at an excellent price.

Four Roses Small Batch >> Single Barrel.

FreeDawg · Oct 29, 2015

Went to a 4 roses event recently that had a private stock that was 108 proof but drank like spring water. I don't think it's currently available but it was nice. The small batch is good like you said.

rem101 · Oct 29, 2015

Basil Hayden is good. Eagle Rare and Angel's Envy are two of my favorites.

Use Makers in games just because of the ease with airplane bottles.

Chesusdog · Oct 29, 2015

Buffalo Trace

bsquared24 · Oct 29, 2015

Maybe I have become simple but I just enjoy coming home to Bulleit over a little ice. Bang for buck is off the charts IMO

Original48 · Oct 29, 2015

Also Elmer T Lee (creator of Blanton's) much less expensive and very close in taste.

KentuckyDawg13 · Oct 29, 2015

Larceny
Old Fo

Both cheap $ yet high quality

Some of the bourbons I like

 The following should all be served neat ($50-$125)

Jefferson’s Presidential Select (really good but a lot of $ when there are so many good bourbons under $30)
Jefferson’s Reserve (really good)
Bulleit 10yr (really good)

The following Mix with a little water because it’s pretty hot but no ice. It’s amazing how a little water changes this one. ($40-50)

Rowan’s Creek (Willet) (really good)

The Following can be Neat/Rocks/Water however you like it but please don’t ruin good bourbon with something sweet ($20-$40 most under $30)

Willet Pot Still Reserve (Willet)
Woodford (one of my regulars)
Knob Creek
Four Roses Small Batch (one of my regulars)
Four Roses Single Barrel
Eagle Rare (Buffalo Trace)
Bulleit (one of my regulars)
Buffalo Trace (BT)
Wild Turkey 101 (My end of the month bourbon but I will drink it anytime. Can find it under $20 but I think it is better than the others in the under $20 category)
Jefferson’s
Kentucky Vintage (Willet)

Mix however you want but I still just drink these on the rocks (under $20)

Four Roses Yellow Label
Old Charter

Uncle Ruckus · Oct 29, 2015

Knobb Creek. I have several other 'better' bottles but I seem to always go to this. Knobb and some water it clutch.

Prediction? Pain. · Oct 29, 2015

The only two I almost always have in the cabinet are Evan Williams Single Barrel and some form of George Dickel (at the moment, I've got bottles of No. 12 and Barrel Select). Other recent semi-regulars in the rotation are Basil Hayden, Bulleit, Maker's, and Larceny.

Lakedawg · Oct 29, 2015

Not everyday:
Elijah Craig 21
Jefferson Presidential

Frequent:
Blantons
Rock Hill
Woodford
Angels Envy Rye
Clyde May Conecuh

Never:
Elijah Craig 12
Woodford Double Oaked

Those last two I gave the bottles away. Awful. Interesting given my earlier selections.

CochiseCowbell · Oct 29, 2015

For tailgating:
I prefer Zima, but they don't make it anymore. I shotgun my first PBR (it's the trendy ironic brew) at my truck with the pristine Mickey Thompson tires & Salt Life stickers. I use a bib to keep the bowtie dry. I put a new PBR into my Yeti koozie & wait on my girlfriend to help me carry my Yeti cooler to the Grove. She's usually late & almost always arrives with a new male friend she wants me to meet. Whatever, sometimes the guy carries the cooler leaving my hands free for both my beer & Abner's bag. Then...wait, I'm on the wrong thread & wrong board.

Er, I mean Tunsil, Freeze, Nkimdeechee, Swag Kelly, Bro!

JW Dant straight out of the bottle with a bottle of Coke for a chaser.
