I need to try Buffalo Trace but no ice or splashes of anything in mine! Everyone's tastes are different I suppose.
Here are my standbys:
Low bucks: Elijah Craig, Wild Turkey Rye
Medium bucks: Woodford, Knob Creek
More bucks: Pappy
Never cared much for Maker's but the last bottle I got as a gift was much better than any I remember. Also didn't care too much for Bulleit or Bulleit Rye. Not bad, just a little disappointed. I guess I was expecting more, especially the Rye.
I do think its possible to get average bottles, and sometimes great bottles of the same make/vintage. Like cigars, it might be best to give a brand a try or three before making any final conclusions.
