Regular JD is pretty meh and basic, but I do love it on an airplane (the altitude messes with the flavor of stuff and it always makes bourbon have a slight woody, vanilla taste.

Gentleman Jack and Single Barrel are pretty darn tasty, however.

I had not heard of that regarding altitude. Good to know

Yeah altitude affects food taste dramatically. Airline food is specifically changed around to deal with that.

Also, as for drinking on a plane, a double will knock you flat, and then when you land, you're totally sober!

I like Knob Creek a lot, but some bourbons I have tried lately that I love are:

1.) Basil Hayden's
2.) Woodford Reserve
3.) Buffalo Trace
4.) McKenna's

All four of those blow Knob Creek and Gentleman Jack out of the water.

Never been a huge JD fan, but I've only ever tried plain old JD and it was a long time ago before I really got into bourbon. Makers was my gateway into liking bourbon.

Eagle Rare is a fantastic buy. I'd give it a solid B to B+ (its similar to Buffalo Trace and Makers Mark to me) and it only costs like $20 usually.
$30 in my experience. To be honest, I’ve never had it, but I work at a liquor store and often hear how good it is.

I got a bottle of Sinatra and I really like it. Little bit more wood flavor due to the slits they cut in the barrel.

I like Single - Neat

Regular jack for when i'm getting plastered and hollerin at bi*ches.
