    Where'd you find the plug-in version? We don't get that one here...

    If you enjoy Wellers and Buffalo Trace, try Very Old Barton, if you can find it.
    Ignore its (low, low) price and position on the bottom shelf. It's quite good.

    Story I was told was that one of the makers of Wellers started his own business. Haven't bothered trying to verify.

    I’ve really enjoyed Buffalo Trace. I stopped drinking bourbon for close to 20 years because I liked it a little too much. Now that I’m (significantly older) sipping high quality bourbon is a nice treat once in a while.

    Eagle Rare is next on my list. At some point I want to branch out and try some Bulleit Rye and Four Roses. For now though I see myself keeping Buffalo Trace around.

    4 Roses small batch is excellent.
    If you want to splurge a few more dollars, Angel's Envy is a smooth ride.

    Don’t forget Henry McKenna 10-year, Bottled in Bond.

    Might be the highest value in bourbon today. Great flavor and character for well under $30 per bottle. Great to sip neat or on the rocks, great in a cocktail.

    This is a phenomenal value. Truly an under rated bourbon.

    George Dickel has been mentioned, but not specifically #12 <--- that can be had for under $18 around where I live at the high-volume discount liquor places.

    Punches way above its weight. Smoother and more carmelly, without being soft, than you'd expect for the price.

    Dickel green label Rye is also quite good if you can find it.

    You know the Green Label has been teasing me every time I go in to my favorite place.

    Looks like I'm gonna try something new.

    I've been exploring the Jefferson's lineup and enjoying it. So far my favorite is the Old Rum Cask finish, followed by the Ocean. I recently picked up the Chef's Collaboration, and I like the rye blend. Jefferson's tends to experiment a bit more compared to other brands, and I find them a bit more interesting for it.
