Best Bourbon that doesn't break the bank?

[mustang-3537]

I have come to like bourbon along the way leaning less on beer and the belly. Who here knows bourbon and can recommend some brands that are the best bang for the buck? I've tried Bulliet which is good as well as Knob Creek, Jefferson's Reserve, Woodford's Reserve, Tin Cup which is a little mild, among a few others. Any recommendations in the Bulliet price range that's comparable to the mid shelf in taste and drinkability?

BLACK VELVET VS CROWN ROYAL=hard to tell the difference after the first drink.

Best bourbon that doesn’t break the bank..

Under $20 Wild Turkey 101 or Evan Williams BiB

if you are hunting sweet, Woodford Double Oaked for around $50 is good stuff

$30 mark I’d recommend Eagle Rare always chosen over Elijah Craig Small Batch unless that Elijah Craig Small Batch is a single barrel store pick!

A little 2017 George T Stagg... absolutely one that WILL BREAK THE BANK!

Four Roses, Old Forrester, Four Roses single barrel especially. Maker’s Mark cask strength, Basil Hayden’s, Evan Williams small batch 1783, Old Tub, Very Old Barton, and 1792 for sure.

Have sacrificed for y'all & tried tons of different whiskeys & for the price, you can't beat this.

My personal favorite is Jim beam Devils Cut.

Jim Beam Distillers Cut is a good one. I don't think they make that one anymore but the new Jim Beam single barrel 108 proof that I had was a good one. I think I just like the Beams.

Our realtor gave me a bottle of Blanton Single Barrel as closing gift. I have not tried it yet but it appears to be promising.

If you like bourbon then Im sure you will enjoy it. Its a much hyped/chased bottle for sure. Enjoy

Old Forester 100 is an overlooked gem.
