Any bourbon aficionados here?

For the last couple of years I've been buying different bourbons and the price to taste difference is all over the page.

Age makes a difference, mash bill makes a difference and proof makes a huge difference.

Like wine, a distillery can put out a very good bourbon one year and it fails to deliver the same quality the next year.

Whats your go to bourbon? Your impress your guest bourbon and your special occasions bourbon?

So far this year for me in order is Wild Turkey101, Michters straight bourbon and MB Rowland straight, unfiltered bourbon.

Can't go wrong with Wild Turkey

My favorite is the brown kind.

That my wife's drink of choice. She likes the good 4 Roses...she apparently just discovered they have a lesser version.

For the money, it's very good.

We can't get that here. My daughter lives in Denver so she's my "distributor" for bourbons that are unavailable here.

Not anymore. When I used to drink that stuff, I reenlisted in the Marine Corps and got married. I know my limits.

I have liked Buffalo Trace for some time. Good bourbon for the price. But it is hard to find locally.

EC Taylor is quite tasty.
