Very nice start, Doc.As posted on another forum, I had never delved into Bourbon before, preferring other beverages. However for the past year, I’ve begun to gain an appreciation for Bourbon, as one of our post-doc’s did his PhD at the University of Louisville and has demonstrated the joys of a nice Bourbon.

Woodford Reserve—works great as a nice simple smooth and mellow sipping bourbon and also mixes well for cocktails, especially mint juleps!
Blanton's Original Single Barrel—the first single barrel bourbon commercially available! Complex flavors, lovely finish, kick in the pants! Hard to go wrong with this one.
Angels Envy—Developed by Lincoln Hendersen, Woodford Reserve’s former master distiller and aged in old Port wine barrels. A bit of fruit flavor comes through, as does oak. Definitely worth trying alone or in a cocktail.
Eagle Rare 10—Dark complex flavors with a bit of oak. Can be sipped and is also great in an Old Fashioned or Manhattan.
Willett Pot Still Small Batch Reserve—Gloriously smooth and flavorful; delightful neat or with an ice cube. One of my favorites to sip so far!
Four Roses Small Batch Select—Elegant, complex, flavorful, smooth. It does not get much better than this!
