Straight pour of bourbon, neat, what is your go to pick

[Nomad1600]

I had been a Jack Daniels fan. Then a friend gave me a bottle of Knob Creek. Drank that exclusively for many years. This past weekend a neighbor introduced me to Angels Envy which will be my next purchase. But the local store had a sale on Jack Daniels Single Barrel... so I have come full circle.

Been hitting TinCup lately. Locally made in TinCup Colorado. Very smooth, no bite, medium body. Excellent neat, so-so on rocks - doesn't hold up to dilution well.

As it happens I have a picture of Tin Cup Colorado. I camp in Taylor Park nearby yearly. To see it you'll have to look hard. I'm not sure where they make it but Tin Cup is just a namesake.

Couple of more for fun, please forgive the hijack.

Found a couple bottles of Tin Cup on the shelf of my local discount liquor shop today. Only $28 a bottle with a nifty tin cup atop the neck. Worth trying, eh?

MGP stuff. Bottled in Denver, though!

I saw this in my local package store. How is Tin Cup?

Did not purchase a bottle. Needed tequila for Palomas! First go with Espólon (little bland for me, but we'll be mixing it!).

4 Roses for me, but there are many great ones available around the $45 price point. Best I ever had and would just about kill for more was a 20 year old Pappy Van Winkle that cost me $70 back in 2005.

On the rye front, definitely Whistle Pig but that's a bit over $45.

I found a local store with two cases of Elijah Craig 12 (750s) just sitting in a dusty corner. Tempting.

For me the best bargain bourbon is Buffalo Trace. I saw several mentions for Blantons but that is over $45 a bottle here. Blantons is made by Buffalo Trace. The only problem, I can never find BT in Ohio.

I've been going through a lot of bourbon in various cocktails and I agree that Buffalo Trace is an excellent bourbon. An outstanding value!

+2. $25 a bottle here.

Bought some Wild Turkey 101 for $21.00 today. I consider that a bargain for an underrated whiskey.

They make an excellent rye whiskey as well!

+2. I go through a big bottle with a whiskey drinking bro-in-law twice a year. Long but satisfying weekends.

Now THAT must be some kind of weekend!

Couldn't agree more. WT 101 and Evan Williams BiB are two of the best values out there. Different flavor profiles depending on what sounds good.

I picked up a handle of WT 101 for $35 plus a 12 pack of coke from Winn-Dixie last week, which is a steal.

Michters single barrel. Not cheap or easy to get, but very fine bourbon.

Wow ... heck of a price ... plus that stuff's not easy to come by. Where did you find it? I'll be down that way this weekend

I found it at a grocery store called Woodmans. If you've ever been to the Madison area then I'm sure you've heard of it.
